The Light of Hope

Facts

Description

Through the language of color, where the cool colors contain the problems and the warm colors the solutions, we advance from unequality through stereotypes towards education, justice and finally hope. The main image  shows a mature woman, breaking the chains of oppression and advancing towards consciousness and natural wisdom. In the center a balanced scale, with the symbols of woman and man.

This mural was also sponsored by Unesco Etxea and Garapen Bidean, 2 NGO´s that are working on events celebrating the 10th anniversary of the Resolution 1325 Women weaving together Peace, a project whose objective is to publicize the role women play in the construction of peace.
