Elevar - Santiago De Cuba 2008!





We selected a general theme for all of the murals: energia y futuro (en energy and future). This is the finished work, a collaboration of 14 artists, some of whom are teachers at the art school. The project took a total of 8-9 days to complete.

There is a pyramid, paper plane, and windmill on the left side, and a head (upside down) above the sun/nature scape with a scale in the middle of the right side. There are two pheasant like parts of a mask on the mural... one on the left side and one on the right. The letters ELEVAR (elevate en espanol) span across the building from left to right.
