Fernando Llort - a Jewel of Hope and Peace
Artist Fernando Llort is a national treasure in El Salvador, and he continues to give back to his homeland.
On Friday in San Marcos, El Salvador, artist Fernando Llort and a group of youth began work on a mural titled "The Jewel of Hope and Peace."
The project is sponsored by UNICEF, as part of its campaign "no te indigna?" / "aren't you outraged?" which is intended to raise awareness of violence afflicting children in the country.
Llort's recent works in public spaces have included a renovation of the Monument Hermano Lejano ("Distant Brother") dedicated to those Salvadorans living abroad. The renovation, concluded in 2012 includes sculptures and murals to provide a "fraternal hug" and a welcome home.
He also recently completed a mural with youth volunteers in Santa Tecla as part of a Plan El Salvador program.
