Mamá Tingó by Kilia Llano in Santo Domingo

"The land belongs to those who sow it, that's why this land is mine" ?? Florinda Soriano Muñoz was an activist and defender of peasant rights in the Dominican Republic. She was assassinated fighting against the unjustified dispossession of land from the resident peasants of Hato Viejo in Yamasá during the second government of Joaquín Balaguer. Brave, strong woman who fought to defend the dignity of the Dominican peasant. Mural in honor of a woman I admire and who makes me feel proud of my roots. Thanks to @cromcinarte for the invitation, to @pinturaspopular and @alcaldiadn for this initiative to rescue events and people that have been key in our history and above all thanks to all my people from Ciudad Nueva in sd, my beloved neighborhood that I will love forever ?? It is important to emphasize that this is my artistic interpretation of her, due to the little photographic reference of her person, but I wanted to represent the strength of the gaze of a woman of steel.
