murals
We put mural installations up on a wall as an act of
remembrance. Traditionally, they have been used in the urban landscape
for historical or political reasons. Murals bring our personal ideas
into the collective memory in the public sphere. People want to remember
a part of themselves in public and speak about it. Nobody wants to be
anonymous to themselves or to others in what is around them since it is a
form of estrangement. We are a part of the buildings and objects

Pictures can uplift us to recreate ourselves and our ideas to a place of
beauty, peace and joy.
What is
