Streetartwall. A large (32 m x 10 m) and impressive mural with ornamentally drawn animals and the theme of human rights was installed on the outside wall of a two-storey building. The background is dark green, the mural itself is black and white. As with a mosaic, many individual parts were designed to create a detailed mural that looks like an old church window. The French artists were inspired by the "Universal Declaration of Human Rights" of 1789
and its text, which shows an engraving with two angels on a triumphal arch. It shows the frame of the original engraving, but reinterpreted: The angels hover over arches and porticoes on either side, symbolizing the moral pillars. The text reads as follows: "Déclaration des Droits de l'Homme et du Citoyen". At the center of the composition are two figures: a monkey and a bird, standing against the backdrop of the majestic library of Trinity College Dublin. They symbolize guardians and embody wisdom and knowledge. Power and intellect only take on their true meaning when they are guided by reason and ethics.
Info: The theme was the 17 UN Sustainable Development Goals. The mural illustrates goal 16 in its own way: Peace, justice and strong institutions.
