The artist approached the creation of this mural in the same way that he approaches his everyday life in the city: by documenting the historical changes and events through art and color. Mariscal embraces moments of change and construction, seeing only a “beautiful chaos.” Influenced by his childhood in Mexico City, and its legacy of Mexican muralism, the artist realized that art is “not just a visual tool but a very powerful piece of knowledge and history that can change or question the way people or governments think and influence future generations.”
