“El enfado”

When I was asked to do a mural in March, around Women's Day, I once again had that contradictory feeling of joy and sadness. Joy because being able to create a piece inside a museum is always a great opportunity, but on the other hand, there was that

“Vale por un viaje”

“El estigma del parado”
