Mural on Serrador Bridge II

Santa Cruz de Tenerife · Category: Art · Subcategory: Urban art · Year: 2014 · Authors: Sabotaje al montaje

On one of the pedestrian-accessible arches under Serrador Bridge, specifically the one closest to La Noria Street, the artist Matías Mata, better known as Sabotaje al montaje, created in 2014 a mural intervention that the author himself described at the time as a "chapel of colour". The work is part of the "Dive into Santa Cruz" project which, under the auspices of the company Cepsa and with the collaboration of the City Council, aims to improve through urban art places and corners of the city without evident aesthetic relevance.

In this walkable arch, Sabotaje al montaje carried out a large mural composed of dozens of shades intertwined through geometric figures and lines crossing the entire vaulted surface. Only a part, a central semicircle near the ground, plays with the usual greys of the city; the rest is all colour and light. The work exudes positivity and vitality through abstraction, creating a chromatic explosion that surprises the passer-by wandering through this space.
