the street is our gallery

This is the new wall of INTI thats was recently created in Arica, Chile. Titled: “PACHAKUTI” (Quechua), it represents the return to a cycle’s starting point.

This mural was made in the city of Arica, north of Chile. As a frontier city, it is for many, the end of a narrow and homogeneous country. However, for others it means a continuation or entrance to the South America which is rich in miscegenation and traditions. The cross-wise South America that knows no political borders and that allows itself to be swayed by the color of the bronzes that descends from the Andes all the way down to the coast. Cultural and religious syncretism, here and now! In a country that has forgotten how the sacred and the festive go hand by hand in the CARNAVAL!!.
