Pejac headed to the bohemian and popular neighbourhood of Jabal Al-Weibdeh in Amman for his third project. This artwork was painted right next to a kids playground and close by the the impressive Rey Abdullah I Mosque.

“On the one hand I’m talking about Jordan, a country that has a long history of hospitality towards refugees. Today, for example, there are over 1.6 million Syrian refugees and over 2 million Palestine refugees in Jordan.
On the other hand without knowing it, a big part of Jordan’s population and its future is being determined by, is in the hands of, the kids.” Pejac
