In May 2009 , Tavar started another tour of Europe lasting four-months . This tour did not seem to have a title as with most of Zawacki 's previous tours . In July , he painted a social and political stencil piece titled ' Bridging The Divide ' directly on the Berlin Wall . The artwork depicted a young girl jumping up , with arm extended trying to grab a bouquet of flowers from a person on the opposite side of the Berlin . The painted scene was completed with a smiling guard looking at the young girl jumping . ' Bridging The Divide ' was painted on the 20th year anniversary of the German reunification In August 2009 , Tavar returned from Europe , and moved to Portland , Oregon . He started a charitable non-profit project involving Portland 's homeless population . Tavar was quoted in an interview , " I wanted to address and draw more attention to the homeless crisis here in Portland . I wanted to learn more about this homeless epidemic by listening directly to the homeless community on an individual person to person level . During the month of November , 2009 I rode my bike around Portland wanting to listen to homeless individuals that wanted to share their story and suggestion on what shelters really help out with services as well as where I should donate the money fund raised from this ' Homeless not hopeless ' print . " In January 2010 , just days after the Haiti Earthquakes , Tavar flew to La Havana , Cuba , to make a site specific stencil commenting on the recent devastation in the neighboring country of Haiti . Tavar 's stencil work was titled ' Help Thy Neighbor ' and depicted a young Cuban boy with tire raft , first aid medical kit , and a Haitian flag in hand ready to embark to what is assumed , Haiti
