Al-Fihri

Mural made in commemoration of the 25th Anniversary of the UHU in which the artist portrays the image of a woman who represents Al-Fihri who is the person who created the first school of higher education in the world. The main image is the goddess Athena, known for being a goddess of wisdom, linked to arts and crafts, merging with the goddess Athena we see a young woman with an intense gaze, both are accompanied as iconography by the star of Al-Andalus, a civilization that radiated its own personality, of cross cultural and fertile
miscegenation, civilization that left a very strong legacy in Andalus territory and throughout
of the entire peninsula. Another character that appears semi-hidden is the owl, a symbol that
represents once again the concept of wisdom, serenity and intelligence. the final image
harmoniously builds the portrait of a woman that the artist captures as a tribute to
Fatima Al-Fihri, nicknamed Oum al banine. This representation aims to make visual the role of
women and, on the other hand, the role of the university as an institution of knowledge and
knowledge.
