Afro Mural (2021)

This mural was an initiative by the muralist collective; sponsored by merchants of the area as well as independent donors of the organization. The same was painted on a wall in front of the Colegio Oscar Correa Agosto in Añasco, Puerto Rico. With the main purpose of rescuing the appearance of the structure’s façade; with the idea of incorporating the natural bushes above it into the design of the two character’s afro hair. Adopting this from similar murals done previously around the world; using it’s image to embellish the area and deconstruct common prejudices related to afro-descendant features.
