Recoge y Protege

The mural titled "Recoge y Protege" is a large-scale artwork spanning 62 square meters. Its main purpose is to deliver a clear, straightforward message: the importance of picking up litter and protecting the environment. Positioned in a neglected area cluttered with waste, the mural seeks to raise awareness among local residents about the need to maintain a clean environment.

Visually, the mural is divided into two key elements. On the right, a hand wearing a pink cleaning glove reaches out toward a bouquet of red flowers wrapped in a plastic bag. This imagery symbolizes human efforts to clean up and safeguard nature. The flowers, representing beauty and life, are trapped in plastic, highlighting the harmful effects of pollution. The gloved hand suggests the act of removing waste to free and nurture the environment.

The phrase "RECOGE Y PROTEGE" (Pick Up and Protect), prominently displayed on the mural, reinforces this message, urging local residents to actively engage in caring for their community. The blue background contrasts sharply with the pink glove and red flowers, making the mural visually striking and ensuring its message stands out.

Beyond adding aesthetic value to the area, this mural serves as a constant reminder that both individual and collective actions can make a meaningful impact in preserving the environment.
