A stenciled bird with sarcastic graffiti text reads "Nessuno legge le tue cazzo di poesie su Facebook" ("Nobody reads your fing poems on Facebook"), signed by the street artist Pavesi. Below, a scratched/engraved response continues the ironic tone: "Ma tutti sto cazzo di disegno" ("But all this fing drawing"), creating a layered street-level dialogue between writer and passerby.

A wall near Venice’s prison covered with layered political and activist graffiti. Messages include "Il carcere uccide" ("Prison kills"), "Fuoco a TV e giornali" ("Fire to TV and newspapers") ironically placed under an old wall chimney/fireplace structure, "L'architettura è una disciplina fascista" ("Architecture is a fascist discipline") and "From the river to the sea" (a slogan linked to Palestinian resistance). Other graffiti reference anti-Green Pass sentiments and solidarity with detainees. The site’s proximity to the prison and the symbolic placement of the "fire" slogan under the chimney visually reinforce the protest tone.
