We should say that this is an ugly piece of street art, so that its beauty does not attract the evil eye. The model in this new street art for HTN24, painted by Jordanian artist Yazan Mesmar (ig), is holding an amulet in order to protect herself.
The piece replaces one by emic (see The Bird Flew In, Minds Went In) in Farnham Street.
