Is this a word you can even pronounce on the first try? Desassossego. It’s Portuguese for “restlessness,” and it’s also the name of the vibrant mural splashed across the building in front of you. Created in 2015 by Portuguese artist AkaCorleone, the Desassosego Mural isn’t just a dazzling explosion of color; it’s a conversation starter, a head-turner, and a perfect example of Lisbon’s vibrant street art scene. Take a closer look. You’ll notice the mural’s centerpiece: a figure with starry eyes hidden behind sunglasses. This isn’t just any face; it’s rumored to be inspired by the one and only Fernando Pessoa, one of Portugal’s most celebrated literary figures. Pessoa, known for his complex philosophical ideas and exploration of identity, seems like a fitting muse for a mural titled “Restlessness.” As you admire the Desassosego Mural, remember that you’re not just looking at paint on a wall. You’re witnessing the fusion of art, emotion, and a touch of Lisbon’s restless, creative spirit.
