Murals have become an excellent alternative to rescue and beautify spaces in cities. What once could be frowned upon, today is considered a true art that brings a lot of aesthetics to landscaping. Now it is pleasant to see how art is part of the walls of the main streets and avenues of modern cities. Such is the case of "Lecherías", a city located in the State of Anzoátegui, in eastern Venezuela. In one of my visits to this beautiful city I was able to appreciate this huge and interesting mural called "City", which is located on Libertad Avenue. The place where this mural was made was a place that used to be used as a garbage dump, people avoided walking around the place because of how ugly and unpleasant it could be.
According to an article in the digital newspaper [El Mercurio web.com] (: https://elmercurioweb.com/archivo-noticias/2014/9/8/de-basura-a-obras-de-arte) This idea of the elaboration of murals as a strategy to rescue public spaces, arises thanks to the initiative of FADA (Fundación Amigos Del Ambiente) and Fundaidentidad together with the Mayor's Office of the municipality of Urbaneja. The authors of this mosaic-style work are two architecture students from the Universidad de Oriente, Jackeline Hernández and Adán Guevara. They point out that it took them 5 weeks to create the mural and that it was made with construction waste materials such as ceramics, mirrors and glass donated by companies in the sector.

What I liked most about this work is the harmony achieved by using these recycled materials, forming images of people and even animals that represent the people who make life in this city. My favorite images are: the old man with his cane and the runners. What used to be a place full of garbage has become a beautiful space where you can enjoy a nice walk and take advantage of the images to take some nice pictures. All these pictures were taken with my Samsung A32 tlf. Source of the information. https://elmercurioweb.com/archivo-noticias/2014/9/8/de-basura-a-obras-de-arte
