Djerbahood

**Style:** An open-sky village museum of urban art, with murals adapted to whitewashed walls, doors, courtyards, domes, and traditional surfaces. Styles range from calligraphic, abstract, and geometric to fantastical, figurative, and photorealist. **Authorship:** Created in 2014 under the direction of Mehdi Ben Cheikh, the project brought together around 150 street artists from 30 nationalities, including eL Seed, ROA, Swoon, INTI, Phlegm, C215, Faith47, and many others. **Historical context:** Djerbahood transformed the village of Erriadh into one of the world's most distinctive outdoor mural destinations. Rather than imposing a single visual program, it allowed global street art to converse with local architecture and with the island's layered Jewish, Arab, and Mediterranean histories. **Local flavor:** Narrow lanes, bright sun, white facades, and village quiet give the works a very different rhythm from big-city mural districts. It feels intimate, textured, and unexpectedly cosmopolitan.
