Greetings, friends of Arte Urbano. This week I am participating in a new artistic edition, so, as always, I express my excitement to show you a little of what I am achieving in the wonderful streets of Medellin, Colombia, and I believe that today's work demolishes prejudices about graffiti and gives way to new considerations, valuations, and respect, and it is certainly necessary to talk about this, Hivers friends.
This mural is painted at the main entrance of Colegio Cosmo, an educational institution that is transforming education in Colombia with a network of high quality schools for children and young people in search of their purpose and potential through inspiring experiences that connect them with art, the body, science, nature, English and technology, in short, an academic space of high humanistic level, that gives way to one of the artistic representations with more taboos, and setbacks such as street art, urban art, murals, graffiti, among others, allowing to demolish old and erroneous concepts of vandalism and give way to human expression in public or private spaces, can allow and add more social value, and learning, really a great job of this institution, which not only has this mural, if not all its headquarters enjoy this concept, good luck.
Let's appreciate this mural with a subtle, objective, and, above all, artistic meaning, with a quite considerable height, and if my calculations do not fail me, it can measure up to 10 meters high, a mural with a great colorful, childish, musical aspect and certainly to admire. If you can appreciate it, there is a small black door right where the little piano apprentice poses, a little Afro girl who curiously is thinking maybe about some great Afro artist or some relative; in her memories, she encourages her to continue. I imagine that massive arrival of students entering through that door, and what greater stimulus than this mural, a beautiful little girl playing not just any piece, very aptly practicing “Claro de Luna” (or Clair de Lune in French); it is one of the best-known works of the French composer Claude Debussy, a very soft melody for this little artist, a mural that supports the fact that academic spaces for children should be like this, full of art, love, and tranquility, with a human character of overcoming and diversity. This is what I believe good urban art is like, and this one supports the greatest expression of this.
This was a good find, and I love to share it with you. Getting graphic jewels is always a good exercise to write, to share, and above all, to support the spirit of filling the spaces with visual stimuli to encourage us in the day-to-day and look for positive meanings to everything that surrounds us. Thank you for reading this little work; thank you for supporting my work. I remain attentive to find out who is or who are the artists in charge of this beautiful work, and I will let you know. I was so taken by this mural that just now I heard “Moonlight” and nothing else can provoke in me but love and tranquility, curiously the same thing I feel when I write about urban art and share it with you. Thank you very much always.
