The work is due to occupy two separate spaces in the University: the doorway to the entrance of the Barcelona Campus and the façade of the Aula Magna. The mural will revolve around the subject of the university as a forum for debate, education, research and the transfer of knowledge to society.
The artist is scheduled to finish the work on Friday 3 May. That same day, she will give a lecture, open to the public and all design schools in Barcelona, in which she will discuss her creative process and the techniques she used in creating the mural.
