This stunning mural by Dulk in his hometown, Ontinyent, Valencia, holds deep personal significance for the artist. It was his first large-scale piece in the place where he spent his childhood and where he has now chosen to settle, opening both his studio and home. Created in collaboration with the city hall, the mural is located in one of Ontinyent's prime spots and serves as a vibrant "window" to the city's rich natural beauty, wildlife, and cultural traditions.
Dulk blends his dreamlike, surreal artistic style with a vivid depiction of Pou Clar, a local natural landmark. This masterpiece reflects the area's essence, capturing the grey tones of the rocks, the lush greens of the pine trees, and the dynamic hues of the cool waters. Through a careful use of acrylic paints and an adaptation to the wall's unique shape, the mural beautifully merges Ontinyent's identity with Dulk's vision.
The inclusion of local fauna and flora alongside symbolic elements of the town makes the piece even more special, resonating with both the artist's roots and the community. Surrounded by family and friends during its creation, Dulk found a unique joy in this project—an ode to Ontinyent's nature and traditions seen through his eyes.
