WAS WIR SIND DAS WERDET IHR

The street art installation from the 2016 Urban Heroes Festival in Hagen consists of a two-part typographic mural by artist Lars Breuer located under a railway bridge. The black-and-white block letters on opposite walls read "What you are, we were" and "What we are, you will be," a translation of a traditional Latin memento mori that reflects on mortality and the transience of life.
