With the Kerala Assembly elections approaching, Thiruvananthapuram has seen a resurgence of wall art as a prominent form of political campaigning. Artists such as Robert Sam from Venjaramoodu and Shibu Koppam from Vembayam are at the forefront, creating colorful murals that feature candidates, party symbols, and political slogans. Robert, who has been recognized in the Talent Book of World Records in 2023, completes 15-20 walls a day, emphasizing the longevity of wall art, which can last 3-5 years compared to the fleeting nature of banners. Artists typically earn between ₹2,000-3,000 ($24-$36 USD) per day, working under various pay structures. Despite facing challenges such as extreme heat and a decline in work volume, these artists take pride in their craft, engaging with the public and contributing to the political landscape across party lines. Their work not only beautifies the city but also serves as a vital communication tool in the election process.
