Martín Ron (direct translation): When I arrived in this beautiful city, I was concerned about the dramatic change that the landscape suffered due to the historical downspout of the RÍO PARANA River that gives life to a large part of this region. The causes? Many: Extreme climate change, drought, deforestation, reduction of wetlands and a lot of disinterest in asking ourselves questions. The consequences? Too many. This mural is part of a new series of murals in which I am working where the protagonist is the reflection.
