A 600 m2 urban art mural for the Ciutat Fallera, Valencia, Spain<\/h2><\/div><\/div>[\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”5\/6″]

The north great wall, we have spoken to each other thousands of times about this wall. We have passed by it thousands of times, wondering what happened behind that huge canvas which surrounds the Ciutat Fallera.<\/p>\n

Last November we crossed its walls to discover the life inside, to learn the secret that converts some mere sculptural volumes of recyclable materials into public monuments called fallas and destined to live in our memory through the flames of March 19th.<\/p>\n

This is the perfect support for a streetart work, it fulfils the task of providing visibility to a workshop and study area which was unfortunately unnoticed (due to the lack of any notable external element) to the rest of the citizenship, alien to the creative fallas universe.<\/p>\n

After our first visit to this space we knew it was going to be the first thing we were going to change: fulfilling the need to synthesize the space with a great urban art work.<\/p>\n

And here it is when we, our world and our running way of understanding take part in this story. There are some unique things in this work. First of all its drawing, which is a 2.0 version of the original one, chosen after having known personally the Fallas artists and having understood there was a common struggle when willing a self-recognition in the Art and Culture.<\/div><\/div>[\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/6″][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator color=”custom” accent_color=”#666666″][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=”109″ img_size=”full”][vc_single_image image=”324″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][vc_single_image image=”325″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][vc_separator color=”custom” accent_color=”#666666″][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”5\/6″]

We develop in this project conceptual and mythological elements embodied in a monumental 600 m2 work, where we spin a composition with elements that represent in a perfect way our artistic movement definition. There is a Poseidon safeguarding and blessing the sea people, hippocampus and horses, mythology and symbols within a diversity that guide towards freedom. We can also see a sweet cupid supported by the forearm of a victory carrying a crown of laurels, a tribute to a city that wins the most meritorious recognition: its citizen\u2019s love.<\/p>\n

Painting at home, ignoring all the previous work to let go out what we know doing the best: giving everything. We reinvent ourselves in seconds and let flow whatever make to go beyond the creativity of the artist. Respecting the origin, leaving our classic graffiti signatures apart from this in order to represent through pieces and tags the oneself language used in the workshops by the fallas artists. A way to grow up and merge with space.<\/div><\/div>[\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/6″][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column]

An Olympian Zeus street art wall in the trinquet of the UPV<\/h2><\/div><\/div>

It is known by everybody, but anyway I\u2019m telling it, that Pichi has a very special link with the Polytechnic University of Valencia. This is the university where he shared his time and concerns with classmates and professors of fine arts. These are just some details, but as the great nuances, they make this mural work having an explicit intentionality.<\/p>\n

On December 16th, forming part of the Tuenti Urban Art Project and invited by Urvanity, we made a mural painting in the trinquet* of the Polytechnic University of Valencia, created with our unique style.<\/p>\n

During the creation of this streetart work, modified for the occasion in its plastic treatment, being inverted the glazes composing the backgrounds and our works\u2019 figures, the development of the work in the Ciutat Fallera arrived, coinciding in the time.<\/p>\n

This fact allowed us to create two works that propose a spatial, conceptual and technical conversation, among them, where the public could be able to enjoy them for their uniqueness as well as for their ensemble.<\/p>\n

They were created in an exponential way, a constant we always keep in mind when reflecting on the essence of what we create. This is the union between classical art and contemporary art, which seeks a result that must be always superior to the sum of its elements.<\/p>\n

A mythological deity related to the location was chosen as a main element for the trinquet*. On this occasion, we opted for a version of the Olympic Zeus represented with cornucopia as its main attribute, giving to the work the enough power and majesty for not to need any other type of composition with more elements or not to give any more baroque treatment or composition.<\/p>\n

The development of the mural intervention in the UPV leaves a wonderful piece of StreetArt by the hand of PichiAvo and an element to the reflection on the importance of the people who comes into its classrooms, both students and teachers.<\/p>\n
