“Humilty, strength, elegance & poetry of the subtle: a homage to two women” – New Mural by Helen Bur in Madrid (ES)
Painted for the Urban Art Fair Urvanity2021, this mural by English artist Helen Bur is a homage to street artist Hyuro, who passed away last year, and to the artist’s mother, a sculptress. The two women have met in 2014 in Cardiff, when Hyuro realised her powerful mural for Cardiff’s “Empty Walls” urban art festival, which was organised by Helen Bur herself.
