Jorge is a multi-faceted and well recognized artist, best known for
his surrealistic paintings and sculptures. One day, as he walked to
his studio in Old San Juan, the artist was feeling the collective
burden of his community, so he decided to draw the message Todo
Bien (All Good) with his signature on an adoquin, or paving stone, of
the historic city. In a short time, the community reacted with such
positivity that he decided to move the message to a canvas and
that’s how a series of oil paintings started. This is the first Todo Bien
that Zeno returns to the adoquines by painting on a photograph he
took.

The title is a Boricua expression  which means “work hard” and is used to support and encourage  someone.

This collective of young female artists believes in “artivism”
and community-led muralism to articulate narratives that reflect
the stories and context of a place. La Merced is inspired by Mexico
City’s largest and most iconic market. While focusing on and paying
homage to the laborious women who prepare tortillas with great
care, the mural exalts the hard work and soul that goes into the
food we love.
