In June 2018, we travelled to Latin America to set up some cultural links and had the pleasure of spending some time with Ignacio (
@difuzo_azteka ), a Chilean muralist who not only paints giant murals, but often work’s with groups of people to create community-based murals.
Here is his mural of the famous figure El Motemei, painted on Cerro Lecheros in Valparaíso, Chile.
The footage is a still frame from some of the best drone footage we’ve ever taken and is taken from a documentary movie Where The Wall made whilst in Valparaíso, Chile.
Motemei was a classic character from Chile representing those people that would walk the streets, singing a song, and deliver fresh corn door to door.
These are photos from the archives of Where The Wall documenting all of their self-funded art projects from 2011-2020.

En el mes de Julio de 2018, viajamos a America Latina para hacer nuevas relaciones culturales. Pasamos tiempo con el artista chileno, Ignacio Difuzo(
@difuzo_azteka ). El pinta murales gigantes y trabaja con grupos de gente para crear murales comunitarios.
Este es una foto de su mural de una famosa persona, ‘El Motemei’, pintado en Cerro Lecheros en Valparaíso, Chile.
El Motemei, personaje historico popular, cantaba una canción mientras caminaba por las calles, repartiendo motemei, puerta a puerta.
La imagen es una foto fija de una película documental por Where The Wall, quien hicimos en Chile. —Estes son fotos del archivo de proyectos de Where The Wall 2011-2020.
