Workers from the Coordinating Office of Hydrography and Navigation (OCHINA) create a mural in the El Desagüe sector in Mamo, Catia la Mar Parish, in the state of La Guaira.
The work was created by the plastic artist, muralist and sculptor Franco Camargo, which highlights the imposing silhouette of the Corocoro Island Lighthouse, erected as a guardian of our Atlantic façade and an emblem of national sovereignty.
Camargo explained that his work represents the spirituality of a fierce people, with the courage and determination to live in peace. “It's a testament to our identity and strength,” he said.
“It is a mural that measures about 40 square meters, which reflects the civic and peaceful character of the Venezuelan people through their religious images and their political leaders such as Simon Bolivar,” he said.
The mural harmoniously integrates elements that celebrate the civic-military-police union, the spirituality, culture and history of the Venezuelan people.
A central aspect of the work is the representation of the two Venezuelan saints, José Gregorio Hernández and Mother Carmen Rendiles, figures who serve as spiritual beacons that guide the nation's path.
In this regard, Father José Manuel Colmenares, pastor of the San José Obrero de Mamo Parish Community, stressed that the mural “seeks to project Venezuela as a territory of peace, where hope is born and holiness springs from its most visible figures.”
