“The wall with the judge was painted in the village of Son Servera, and it talks about the freedom of speech. A Spanish rapper was condemned to jail just for the lyrics of his songs… ridiculous.”
Artist: Sath
The wall “Congreso De Los Imputados”is about politics.
Artist: Sath
“At the entrance of the Spanish parliament (congreso de los diputados): I changed the word diputados for imputados, (that means imputed). There are 2 lions, so I painted 1 of them (changing the ball for a prisoner ball), to criticize the government and the corruption.”

Sath’s sense of humor is precious, whatever he decides to say with it.
“By the way, this wall painting is the new Spanish gastrobar Broken Eggs by the Galician Chef Jacobo Astray, in Ekkamai. Great selection of wines, craft beers, amazing food and service. All for affordable prices! Buen provecho!”

I asked Sath about the above shot.
“The organization in that case was called “renou col-lectiu” that in Catalan language means “collective noise”.
Sath hails from Mallorca (Spain). He uses spray & acrylic paint to create colorful pieces, slightly surreal. He uses figurative elements, & impossible situations or actions, but he never neglects the message.
Sath sent me a FaceBook link to a short sweet video of himself painting the wall below. I can’t seem to embed the video. It’s not on YouTube, but if you click on the pic below, it will take you to the video. If you do not have a FB account (like me) just click on “Not Now”. You will be able to view it!

Many renditions of this type of home is still found in well kept order in this area. It is dark in the underpass, so they have these lights to help us see. I thought the way the capture of the light mixing with the tree is interesting.
