Our friend from Chile, INTI, has been busy throughout Mexico and various spots around South America, painting 4 murals from Queretaro to Colombia, Chile and Brazil. INTI told us the "works touched on the environmental impact caused by the exploitation of natural resources, and how the original culture of the continent still survives and merges with the imported culture from Europe." Here is rundown of the works... and check the gallery too for more looks...
“COATLICUE Y EL JAGUAR”
Mexico 2018, Queretaro
Mexica goddess of fertility, replaced by Maria during the European conquest of America. Although his process of syncretism enriched the current Latin American imaginary, it forced to camouflage deities prohibited under Catholic iconography, as the last sources to perpetuate their history and culture.
"HIJO DEL SOL”
COLOMBIA 2018, Barranquilla (Killart-Fest)
The cosmovision imported into America in the form of religion, today is deconstructed, exposing the base on which it was built.
“RECURSOS NATURALES 1”
CHILE 2018, Valparaiso (Valparaiso en Colores)
"The rulers of a country of the South who promises entry to the First World, a magical passport that will make us all rich and happy, should be prosecuted for fraud. Because this system of life that is offered as paradise, founded on the exploitation of our neighbor and in the annihilation of nature, is the one that is making us sick." —Eduardo Galeano.
“RECURSOS NATURALES 2"
BRASIL 2019, Fortaleza (Concreto Fest)
