Lisbon, Mural, +GSP

Mural at Maria16 Art Studio, Lisboa. Every month a different artist is given the chance to transform their wall into a personal canvas. I was invited to take part of the initiative during the first semester of 2023.

The dimensions of the wall were 5×6m approximately—I decided to continue with my More Green Shadows Project, this time on a street wall.

This project began years ago in Oaxaca (MEX) as a series of block prints made using real shadows and sunlight. It wasn’t easy to find green shadows in a region where the cutting down of trees was not regulated. This was the trigger I needed to start working for this cause.

The highest rates of deforestation are seen in developing countries where Foundation Reforestemos is working with communities to stop the clearing of forests. More Green Shadows Project consists of making a contribution from sales. With each painting sold, buyers will be donating 30 trees for reforestation and conservation of native forests, mainly located in South America.

Trees are an incredible natural technology, absorbing CO2 from the air and transforming it into O2. A single mature tree can take in about 50 pounds of carbon dioxide per year. To compensate 1 tonne of CO2, 31 to 46 trees are needed.

This is only the beginning!
