EXHIBITION - MAZARRÓN TOWN HALL UNTIL 6 JULY

Until July 6 at the Town Hall of Mazarrón you can visit the exhibition "anticiclon" by Mariana Sanchez, an artist who was born in Cehegín and moved to Murcia at the age of five where she lived until, for professional reasons, undertook a long pilgrimage by Spain to Chile and Portugal but in January 2012 settled permanently in Bolnuevo. The opening of the exhibition was provided by the Councillor for Culture of the City of Mazarrón, Maria Celeste Soria, and the artist who was accompanied by friends and family.

"Anticiclon" is a tribute to the Azores, one of the places in her journey, her experiences there and its people. As explained by the author of the exhibition "the mid-Atlantic and where some placed the mythical Atlantis, is the archipelago of the Azores. It is the island of Sao Miguel, where the capital of the archipelago known as the "Isla Verde", is where the great Poseidon resides with its sheet of moving clouds and strong winds, giving its sea a variety of shades and aspects, ranging from the serene shades of emerald green during the day when the sea gods sleep peacefully to bluish gray and almost black with big waves in the days of gale that show his wrath and power. "

All these powerful images come together in the Mariana exhibition which also recreate the Aegean Islands  as "meadows and forests tinged with multiple shades of green and roads that reflect the rainbow of colours of different flowers.

Councillor for Culture, Maria Celeste Soria, praised the work of the artist and her personality, "because she is intelligent, generous, brave and full of energy which exudes quality in her work." The Mayor also invited all citizens of Mazarrón to visit the Town Hall "where you can enjoy the exhibition." Opening hours of the exhibition are Monday to Saturday from 10-2pm and on Thursday and Friday from 5-8pm. The building is closed on the last Saturday of the month.
