The Firefighters' Wall - CCC's Street Art Contest #268 [ENG-ESP]
A couple of days ago, by chance, I passed by the street where the city's fire station is located, and I was surprised to see that they had painted a large mural there.
Hace un par de días, por casualidad, pasé por la calle donde se encuentra la estación de bomberos de la ciudad y me sorprendió ver que habían pintado un gran mural allí.
It was freshly painted; you could still smell the paint in the air, so I thought that perhaps it wasn't finished yet, especially since it lacked the artist's signature. That's why I didn't take any photos of it that day.
Estaba recién hecho, aún se podía oler la pintura en el ambiente, por eso pensé que tal vez aún no estaba terminado, porque además le faltaba la firma del autor, así que no le tomé fotos ese día.
Today I went back there with the intention of photographing it, and it seemed to be ready, so here it is.
Hoy volví a pasar por allí con la intención de fotografiarlo y al parecer sí estaba listo, entonces aquí lo tienen.
It was a little difficult because this morning there was too much sun on one side, while the wall of the mural was in shadow, and this prevented me from seeing the shots I was taking very well, but anyway, I think they didn't turn out too bad.
Fue un poco complicado porque esta mañana había demasiado sol en un lado, mientras que en la pared del mural había sombra, y esto me impedía ver bien las fotos que estaba tomando, pero bueno, creo que no quedaron tan mal.
This mural is located in La Victoria, Venezuela, and as we can see, it depicts in a striking and colorful style, a firefighter wearing his mask, in the midst of fighting the fire.
Este mural se encuentra en La Victoria, Venezuela, y como podemos ver, representa con un estilo llamativo y colorido a un bombero con su máscara, en medio de la lucha contra el fuego.
I cannot provide any information about the artist; there was no signature on the wall, so for now, it is an anonymous work.
No puedo proporcionar ninguna información sobre el artista; no había ninguna firma en la pared, por lo que, por ahora, se trata de una obra anónima.
What do you think of this artwork? I really like it; I think it gives this street and the fire station a vibrant look. See you next time!
¿Qué les ha parecido este arte? A mí me gusta mucho, creo que le da un aspecto vibrante a esta calle y a la estación de bomberos. ¡Hasta la próxima!

Que colorido ese mural! Le da un toque muy cool a la estación de bomberos.
¡Sí! Quedé gratamente sorprendida por este arte allí 👏
That's a beauty, thank you for sharing.
Glad you liked it! 😊
Graaacias 😉
Beautiful wall with this colorful and stylized firefighter. Great work. Thanks for sharing these pics on The StreetArt Community.
Have a lovely day
Thank you! Glad you liked it 😊.
How lovely, Sofía. One day I took part in creating a mural, and I really enjoyed breathing in the smell of paint—it felt as if I were absorbing all that art through three of my senses: smell, sight, and touch… well, I was also listening closely to the artists’ conversations, haha… very interesting ones.
It must have been a lot of fun to participate! 😃 I think muralism is an art form that's sometimes underappreciated; it's not easy to create a large-scale work that makes an impact on passersby.
Yes, you’re right. And often it’s very fleeting. That mural we made was erased a few years ago. I’ll try to see if I have any photos of it.
True! Most of them are ephemeral. I hope you get those photos and show them 😉.
