This mural, created in Arinaga (Gran Canaria), is inspired by La Vará del Pescao — a traditional celebration preserved by the local community for nearly 30 years, now one of the most iconic festivities in the Canary Islands.

During the process, strong coastal winds and a storm warning pushed the work to its limits. Instead of resisting, I embraced the unpredictability — allowing the spray to speak, letting raw textures and natural gestures shape the final result. This shift brought me back to a more instinctive and honest way of painting.

The piece reflects the transmission of traditions across generations. The identity of a place lives in its ability to remember, celebrate, and carry its past into the future.
