    “Vía Oeste” by Pablo S. Herrero in Salamanca, Spain

    by

    Pablo S. Herrero’s recent project, “Vía Oeste,” has brought three stunning murals to the picturesque town of Villavieja de Yeltes in Salamanca, Spain. Titled “Ilex Umbra,” these murals pay tribute to the significant oak trees in the area, offering a poignant connection between art and nature.However, beneath the surface beauty, these murals also shed light on the challenges faced by this region, including depopulation and the controversial fight against a proposed uranium mine, which many argue offers false promises of a brighter future.In a region grappling with the exodus of its young population and the looming specter of environmental degradation, Herrero’s murals serve as a powerful reminder of the enduring beauty and importance of nature. Through “Ilex Umbra,” he highlights the significance of these ancient oaks and the urgent need to protect them. In doing so, Herrero’s art not only captivates the eye but also sparks crucial conversations about the intersection of art, nature, and the future of this beautiful yet challenged town in Salamanca.Scroll down below to see more photos of Pablo S.

      by

      Tribute to the figure of “El Perrero”, a character linked to the tradition of the little town of Nava de Francia that symbolizes the transition to the new year, which says goodbye to the dark and traumatic to attract light and good wishes in the new cycle.The magical and ritual character of this figure is accompanied by primitive animals and some typical embroidery motifs, which in turn feed on the popular imagination of the area. The representation of the trees in this case is added to the projection of the shadow of the oaks that surround Nava de Francia.Check out below for more photos of Clara Lurueña and Pablo S.

      “The Message” by Pablo S. Herrero and David de la Mano in Valencia, Spain

      by

      Spanish artists Pablo S. Herrero and David de la Mano have collaborated on a new mural in Torrent, Valencia, Spain. The projects is a continuation of their previous mural “The Calm”.“A sailing species brings news from the distance to land and songs of encouragement. It brings omens and the wishes of those left behind. It carries seeds that will take care of the air. It only respond  to the ultimate power.”The pictorical language of Pablo S. Herrero is linked to the code of plant forms. Trees and forests, both murals and paper, are the vehicle for show relationship between the dynamic and the static, individual and community, sustainability and resistance. His activity as a muralist, usually at off-center and marginal spaces, take the suburbs as a paradigm of the rejection that the city causes to large parts of itself.On the other hand, David de la Mano is known for his large dystopian murals featuring human and animal silhouettes and minimalist style. He creates distinctive artworks which are symbolic reflections on humankind and reminiscent of dark fairytales.The single anthropomorphic figures of the artist gather together and unite in an eternal and recurring movement; the individuals become the mass and vice versa, and they are driven by their dreams, ambitions, fears, vices, hopes, and internal conflicts.Take a look below for more photos of the mural More
