Streetartwall. A mural on white outer wall of a union housing complex. A black and white portrait of a little girl holding a bouquet of flowers. By day the head is not visible. At night the head glows in blue.
Info: "Eulalia" from the Greek: 'The One Who Speaks Well'. Patron Saint of Merida and free expression was a girl who in the 4th century, at the age of 12, stood up to the established power to demand freedom and respect for her beliefs. Lusitania governor rejected her opinion and tortured her in retaliation. It is said that a fog has appeared to cover up the atrocity. She has been represented on multiple occasions but almost always as a woman, rather than a girl. The invisibility and invalidation of youth as an active element that must be part of society is a burden that continues to perpetuate. The future is hers, and the decision about the present must be hers, too. This mural is painted in La Antigua, a union neighborhood next to the Roman Circus of Merida (Extremadura). During the meeting with neighbours the concern over generational relevance in neighborhood activism was mentioned.
