It is one of the iconic paintings of Berlin which is on the wall since 2007. The huge mural was painted by French artist Victor Ash.
It is 22x14 meters and it is one of the most famous murals of Berlin, placed in Kreuzberg.
When I did the astronaut painting in Berlin, I used the idea of the Cold War; I wanted to do something that related to the location where I was painting. And I thought of this huge astronaut because, for me, one of the most important things about the Berlin was that it was an icon for the Cold War. So I made the astronaut in relation to the space race between America and the USSR, to the idea of fighting for something that isn’t with soldiers, that isn’t here on Earth—it’s in another dimension. That’s the kind of idea that inspires me: it’s more global, more human.

Reminds me of the murals on the buildings in Philadelphia.
