The mural pays homage to Guadeloupe Airport, inaugurated in 1953 and originally named Pointe-à-Pitre Le Raizet. For me, traveling outside one’s familiar surroundings opens the mind to new experiences, new opportunities, and new ways of understanding the world, while connecting us to the realities of so many others who are building lives different from our own, thus fostering tolerance and understanding. Travel broadens horizons, and that’s why the mural includes not only the airplane but also a compass rose, which symbolizes the different paths we can take in our lives when we allow ourselves to explore beyond our current knowledge.
