A victory during cancer

This work was realized for the Biennale street art "Superwalls" (June 2021).

Two human figures emerge from the wall of St. Antonio Hospital, they're captured in the act of huddling arousing in the viewer great tenderness.

This whole scene was inspired by a real story that involved a couple of lover: she was diagnosed with severe breast cancer, after that, her partner did not think twice, so he decided to marry her in order to be there for her in the best way.

The artist attended the ceremony:

I stood in front of their altar, watching them with admiration, while thinking about the true love and support that they gave each other during this real life nightmare.

After that time, the artist promised them a huge tribute mural on a hospital, in order to inspire others with their story. She also gave them a holiday to Italy to see it in person, where they hugged and cried tears of joy.

This mural is a reminder that when everything breaks apart, love can keep each others world together, even stronger than before.
