Moj\u00e1car has another work of urban art, located at the entrance to Moj\u00e1car on the wall where the new bus station stands.
\nMore than 400 square metres that depict the most emblematic images of the municipality and invite the visitor to prepare to discover the most important corners of the locality.
\nA general image of Moj\u00e1car, Moj\u00e1car women carrying their pitchers and covering part of their face with the traditional scarf, the city arch, the fountain and its beach as the most representative elements of the municipality’s culture.
\nThe work has been created by Nicol\u00e1s Rodriguez, \u201cNiko\u201d who already knows Moj\u00e1car as the creator, together with his wife \u201cMaki\u201d, a professional photographer, of the spectacular paintings that decorate the lifesaving modules on Moj\u00e1car beach. Mak\u00ed was the author of the photographs on which this new huge mural is based. This time he has also had the collaboration of another artist, Nesui, internationally recognised for his style based on realistic portraiture and for his large murals.
\nIt has taken a year, countless sketches, a lot of study of the mural and a great amount of work to create this very difficult work due to its extensive size and strategic location.
\nWhen the bus interchange was built, the elevation of the land on which it stands partially covered in some sections the view of the village when going up to the village centre from the beach.
\nMoj\u00e1car Council thought of \u201creconverting\u201d the retaining wall into a \u201cwindow\u201d where the silhouette of the village could be seen in its entirety. The effect is spectacular and gives a fantastic first impression, showing that art is part of Moj\u00e1car’s DNA. To its credit, this locality already has, both on the beach and in the village, other murals that undoubtedly embellish its architecture.
\nUrban art has a more than deserved place within the artistic world. It was in Paris, in the 1960s, that it began to be seen and valued, although it was not until the 1990s and thanks to great artists such as Sheparad Fairey and the well-known Banksy, among others, when they succeeded in their works being among the most sought-after in the art world.
\nNicol\u00e1s Rodriguez already has extensive experience in the world of painting. Graffiti artist and visual artist, he has a degree in Fine Arts. He started with some friends in the world of urban art and today is one of Andaluc\u00eda\u2019s most recognised artists.
\nFor more than 10 years he has been working with Mar\u00eda \u00c1ngeles \u201cMaki\u201d Fern\u00e1ndez, forming the group Makinico, a name that encapsulates their joint work and with which they sign a multitude of works.
\nA luxury which Moj\u00e1car joins and follows in the world of art in all its manifestations. In the portfolio, other artistic representations that can shape the locality as a large open museum where the street and its passers-by are the protagonists.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
