<div>This mural was made within the framework of the Arte de Nuestra Gente program. Organized by the Undersecretariat of Culture, dependent on the Government Secretariat of the Municipality of Córdoba, which highlights the public space of Cordoba, makes visible the production of local artists and promotes the encounter with art by the citizens. For this, different operational areas participate together with the Secretary of Government, Undersecretary of Culture, and Secretary of Environmental Management and Sustainability, among other dependencies.<br><br>&nbsp;It represents the direct link that exists between the vegetable kingdom and the dependence of humanity, symbolized by a young woman who exposes her heart, her beat, her feeling, her roots, to the green environment that contains her.</div>

Beating Green

<div>&nbsp;In the mural, a female figure stands out –face and hands in the foreground-, captured as an allegorical resource, surrounded by animals of different species. That woman is the allegory of "La Fauna", a set of all the animals that inhabit and coexist in a nearby geographical environment. The work is located on one of the walls that supports the Bahía Blanca bridge, an elevated viaduct that joins both banks of the Suquía between the road junction of Hombre Urbano and Barrio Junior's. The surface is parallel to the coastal avenue, looking towards the Suquía from the south bank. This position symbolically links the three media in which the zoosphere develops: air (bridge), land (coastal), water (river).&nbsp;</div><div>The Fauna, mistress and mistress of all the members of the "Animalya" kingdom, watches over the harmonious coexistence of these beings, among themselves and with the environment.&nbsp;</div><div>The animals are represented on different scales, breaking the real relation of physical size between the species, to highlight the absolute value of each of them: For Fauna, the owl is as relevant as the puma. As a whole, all these animals are oriented in the same direction, which expresses coexistence in harmony. The representation of the environment is made by a mantle that acts as a plain, mountain range and river.&nbsp;</div><div>Fauna watches over the progress of the animals, while attentively observing another species, the most peculiar of those that make up its kingdom: human beings. She knows that these require special attention and guidance as they often forget that they are part of the whole and lose course, putting all species at risk. Thus, the drivers of the vehicles that circulate along the Costanera in the daily hustle and bustle, absorbed in their interests, meet the Fauna that, with its serene but attentive gaze and with the gesture of its hands, invites them to flow in tune with the rest of the species.&nbsp;</div><div>Blue predominates in the mural, representing pure air, oxygen as an essential resource for the life of animals, and whose abundance is the product of another valuable kingdom: Flora.&nbsp;</div><div>Made for #ARTEDENOURAGENTE&nbsp;</div>

La Fauna, en el azul

<div>"La Serranía" is an explosion of color that makes its way through the gray cement, like a great breath of fresh air, like a natural injection of life. Nestled in a terminal hotel area, the work brings to this urban corner, a bath of healing magic from the mountains. The first tourists that our mountain range received came in search of that "healthy air", highly recommended by the doctors of the time.&nbsp;<br>The visitors, who got off the train loaded with the hope of recovering the promised quality of life, made their first stop at these lodgings, from whose windows by then they could already glimpse the mountains to the west, outlined in fiery sunsets, as a first sign that they were close to finding what they had come to look for...&nbsp;<br>Today, many visitors continue to inhabit these lodgings who also come with the challenge of some medical treatment for which they may have to stay for a while... The mural recreates that atmosphere full of of hope and vital energy necessary to overcome adversity. In the mural, the sun embraces everything with its warm rays. Traversing the atmosphere, its radiance takes on different shades that crystallize in the colors of the different animal and plant species, and of everything that coexists.&nbsp;<br>The mountain range, like a giant with a sensitive soul, takes everything that its surface houses, -including the visitor- shelters it in its heart and transforms it by synthesizing the essences, and returning them to the landscape in the form of rainbows, unfolding its healing message of harmony and coexistence in freedom and diversity. From the heights, the mountains also give us the long-awaited rain that waters life, refreshes tired bodies and soothes aching souls, allowing the continuity of life. Draining through the corners of the mountains, these waters are transformed into streams through which each being, already transformed by the environment, will resume its life course.</div>

La Serrania

<div>&nbsp;</div><div>...And when I finally saw, felt and understood.&nbsp;</div><div>The light from the fire brought me out of torpor and through my hands the impulse to reverse the chaos welled up.&nbsp;</div><div>What can I do in the face of so much destruction?&nbsp;</div><div>Get going, make my first move. Like the first spark that ever caused so much fire, my hands alone have the strength to stop the wheel and turn it towards the side of life.&nbsp;</div>

In my hands

<div>&nbsp;Within the framework of the 10 years of the sanction of the Gender Identity Law, it was proposed to evoke 10 trans activists from Córdoba who have already disappeared, who have worked in the construction of that law.&nbsp;</div><div>The 10 selected figures were:&nbsp;</div><div>Daniela María Aguirre, Eugenio Talbot, Karina Romero, Selene Colantonio (Nati), Estrella Belén Sánchez, Azul Montoro, Luna Abigail Belloti, Aimé Farrah, Octavio Herencia and Laura Moyano.&nbsp;</div><div>From that proposal, it was chosen to work on the portrait in the foreground, taking into account that the public visibility of the specific faces of people reinforces the concept of identity, especially in the case of identities denied for a long time.&nbsp;</div><div>The painting was done on a 32 x 4.75 m (142.40 m2) wall, located on the Costanera Norte of the Suquía River, between the Sarmiento bridge and the access stairway to Costanera from Libertad Street in the General Paz neighborhood. This location, added to its dimensions, means that the mural can be seen from different points of view and with different reading paths: It can be read as a whole (for example, a pedestrian from the other bank of the river or from the bridge ), in a more dynamic way (from the bike path), or a more careful reading, (spectators who come to contemplate it from the proximity of the sidewalk). For this reason, the portraits were made in the foreground, (highlighting individualities) but arranged horizontally integrating a group, highlighting the idea of ??a collective.&nbsp;</div>
