Synopsis

The mural is part of the “Fenómenas do Rural” series, in which Muruzábal depicts women from different Galician towns as figures of great strength and resilience, endowing them with “super powers” that symbolise their daily work in the countryside. Commissioned by the Supercomputing Centre of Galicia (Cesga), the mural depicts two women hanging out clothes in parallel scenes, accompanied by elements such as “flying jellyfish” that, in reality, symbolise quantum computers. The intention, according to the artist, was to incorporate the quantum theme into the concept of rural women.
