Subject: environment. This work, located in the square called with the same name as the work, is in a neighborhood where the fishermen of the town traditionally resided. This activity, once so rooted in the town's tradition and now lost as it was known, as a resource for exploiting catarrh and catarrh, guaranteed that a sector of the population actively defended and prevented the Albufera from attacks on which nowadays is exposed.
In addition, even though the craft as such has been lost, its culture lives on and has bequeathed to us things like traditional village songs to this day. Precisely a stanza of one of these songs can be read in the Albufera sky in this mural.
- The anecdotes were very positive, especially regarding the interactions I had with occasional spectators. They made me feel that the work was well received by the public.
- It should be mentioned that the lifting machine, which is usually used for these tasks, did not cause any problems, when, thanks to my experience, I can say that it is common for something to happen and delay the preparation of the work.
- During the process, the City Council decided to expand the space that had initially been planned, extending and covering the entire structure with a most impactful result. Also, I used more paint than planned.
