Repainted Painted Rocks, Tafraoute, Souss Massa Draa, Morocco.
An ‘art’ installation from the 1980's by Belgian/French artist Jean Verame, controversial even today & recently repainted in primary colours, Moroccan style. Aptly described by locals as "Graffiti de merde technicolor".
Using the landscape around Tafraout painting the rocks in blue, black, pink and red created his artwork to be viewed both from afar (drive up the hill towards Gorges Ait Mansour and look over the valley) and close up by driving or walking the circuit.
This graffiti diminishes a fantastic landscape on a grand scale. I think the locals are right.
