Hemos tenido buenas vibras al poder hacer este trabajo todos juntos. For me it’s enough that the people live and provoke happiness ”, declares Mercedes Arias.

“Although this is my first wall, I always saw the art as a way of making happy the people without them. “Everything in the world that happens in this zone does not go down well enough to see what we are doing and it is a form of leaving a positive message when it is seen in the middle of a chaotic year,” said Batista.
