Mural Art Movement

The Mural Art Movement refers to the creation of large-scale artwork directly painted or applied onto public walls and surfaces. Originating in the early 20th century, it aims to democratize art by making it accessible outside traditional galleries, often reflecting social, political, or cultural themes relevant to communities. Murals can serve as visual storytelling, promote community identity, or inspire societal change. This movement emphasizes collective participation, public engagement, and the transformation of urban spaces into dynamic venues for artistic expression.
