Mural of "Latinoamerica LUCHA"

In 2019, in Chile, were huge mass demonstrations against neoliberal policies. Civil protests took place throughout Chile in response to a raise in the Santiago Metro's subway fare, the increased cost of living, privatisation and inequality prevalent in the country.

​

The mural is drawn on the former prison in Las Barracas barrio, Buenos Aires. Silhouette of the portrait belongs to a native Latin-American woman. Inside the portrait is a woman with a flag of Mapuche people (native people who suffered the most from colonial policies), and the Wiphala - a square emblem commonly used as a flag to represent some native peoples of the Andes that include today's Peru, Bolivia, and parts of Ecuador, Argentina, Chile and Colombia.
