Synopsis

A mural made by Tamara Baz in the 2021 artistic-educational program ELAS TAMÉN PINTAN featuring mixed technique. The composition of the creator from A Guarda recreates a historical episode of great importance for the neighbourhood in which it is located, namely the Banquet of Conxo, featuring a reinterpretation of the toast, made by a woman who, raising a cup of wine, claims equality. As a continuation of the scene, on the second wall occupied by the mural, we can see objects linked to the protagonists of this event and, in a subtle way, to the haberdasher’s shop (Sumián) that is run by the owner who ceded the wall for the project.
