abstract

  • The purpose of the text is to show how graffiti-mural renews public space. It is exposed through four artistic interventions a material and subjective resignification of the public space. This research presents graffiti-mural as an aesthetic tool that allows to approach other realities through the stories that expose themes related to nature, memory, non-forgetfulness, empathy and reflection, which are shaped by the content-message contained in the interventions. These other realities that are evident in the interventions are different from the daily life of someone who grew up or lives in the city. What these graffiti-murals rescue are stories that expose other non-city contexts, since they make visible situations that are not found in the city, such as fauna, people, different interpretations of the same fact that are in the memory of members of various groups or events that seek to be made visible as a means of information.
