"When you see the concrete, it gives the impression that it is still under construction," said Agon Xhelili, organizer of the festival, Meeting of Styles Kosovo. Since its creation, it has organized more than 400 events such as the one in Pristina, helping thousands of artists all over the world. "I think it will be really positive (visually and for tourism) if they allowed more public art murals," said Sharon.
