Morriña

"Morriña is a Galician word that describes a feeling of nostalgia that, from an anthropological point of view, brings us closer to culture as a provider of everything that is not a product of nature. In this case, the blanket metaphorically represents the culture and all those traditions and customs that lose with the evolution of modern times. "
The mural of Hyuro on the main façade of Pazo da Cultura de Carballo building is called Morriña, a term so intrinsically Galician and endowed with so many meanings linked to the land, its origin and its own culture. As in the rest of her previous works, the renowned Argentine artist generates a particular link between painting and the public, inviting him to reflect through a subtle and delicate metaphorical language. Hyuro uses the street as a space for research and continuous reflection, for the liberation of our own fears, conflicts and concerns that we maintain with ourselves and with our environment. She aims to generate that union between the painting and the public, awakening the curiosity and reactivating the internal dialogue that we maintain with who we are and the place we occupy in the world. 
In this composition, in which the figure of a woman appears prostrate on top of a mantle in a position that seems to be crying or lamenting, she reflects on the passage of time and its consequences. From an anthropological point of view, culture is everything that does not come directly from nature. Based on this reflection, Hyuro uses this mantle as a visual metaphor for culture (Galician in particular) and all the traditions and customs that are lost with the evolution of modern times in which we live and the disappointment that this loss induces in people.
