Community urban art
We are a cultural organisation with over 15 years’ experience, built around resident participation, collective memory and genuine social value. Urban art as a tool for real social change.
A community mural puts the process first: listening to the area, involving residents and doing the cultural mediation work that goes far beyond the finished wall.
Tell us about the local context, the community and your objectives. We will come back to you within 48 hours with a tailored proposal.
The participatory process is part of the finished work, not a formality to get through first.
Consultation sessions with local organisations, residents and community groups to identify the themes that matter, before anything is designed.
A committee of artists, cultural managers and educators decides which artists are best placed to engage with the local context.
Open sessions with children, young people and residents throughout the creative process, so the community owns the project from the inside.
We handle materials, permits and artist coordination, keeping communication with the community open throughout.
Photographic and film documentation, so the project becomes a lasting point of reference for the area.
A community mural is built around the participatory process and the collective memory of a place, rather than around a brand identity. The route to the finished wall matters as much as the wall itself.
Through consultation sessions with local organisations, workshops with children and young people and open discussions with community groups, alongside an independent artistic selection committee.
City councils, district authorities, foundations and cultural organisations looking to use urban art for social cohesion. We also work with residents’ associations and neighbourhood groups.
It depends on the scope: the number of interventions, the length of the participatory process and the format. Large-scale programmes such as NOU Sentit Urbà have combined public budgets with European funding.
Very often, yes. Projects such as the WOMART JAMs are explicitly feminist, and murals like “The Women of Trinitat” honour the role women have played in a neighbourhood’s history.
