The Málaga council, through its Environmental Sustainability Area and the 'Málaga cómo te quiero!' program, has presented a new artistic creation on the south facade of the ESAD, located on Louis Pasteur boulevard. This initiative seeks to connect with citizens through urban art, a strategy previously employed in other city interventions.
The work, by Málaga artist Eduardo Luque 'Lalone', depicts the Greek goddess Talía thoughtfully seated on planet Earth. The backdrop includes references to the Roman Theatre and the Alcazaba, alongside a Mediterranean mountain landscape, symbolizing urban renaturalization.
“"There is still land. The Earth whispers in every seed that is born, in every river that sings, in every wing that takes flight. Hope is believing, listening, caring. And in our hands, a new world can bloom."
This action is part of other municipal initiatives that use urban art to improve public spaces and foster neighborhood involvement and intergenerational dialogue. Programs like 'Málaga Más Bella', promoted by the Citizen Participation Area, collaborate with educational centers, associations, and neighborhood groups.
Recently, other artistic interventions have been carried out, including a mural at the CEIP Arturo Reyes in the Cruz del Humilladero district, based on children's drawings, and other works on Camino de los Almendrales, at the IES Manuel Alcántara, and in the Campanillas district. Stairs on Avenida Pintor Joaquín Sorolla and squares like Doctor Vargas Machuca have also been painted, along with interventions on the Antonio Banderas Promenade.
The women's association 'Kartio' documents the creation process and results of these murals in publications.
