In response to a DM, here's a shaded relief map of México! This gives me the opportunity to showcase @paezha's cool package {MexBrewer}, which contains colour palettes inspired by the beautiful works of Mexican muralists.

Many thanks to recent friend duo and marvelous muralists Fuwayutata @fuwayutata & Morimoto @morimotozuhause for brightening up the walls of our west gallery 3rd floor office!
⛈ Initially I wanted to make murals. Now I want to hire more women muralists. Imagine going around the country finding these gems? The world? #NFTeeGals #NFTs #NFTCommmunity #gatewayNFTs #WomeninNFTs 🧵3

"the Canadian son of Mexican muralism"
Arnold Belkin (Canadian 1930–1992) was inspired by the Mexican Muralists. His sculptures, murals, prints & paintings frequently explored themes of utopian futures and suffering of humanity. #mexico #painting #artilove https://t.co/xKtvkce5PF
David Alfaro Siqueiros 1896- 1974 was a Mexican social realist painter, best known for his large murals in fresco. Along with Diego Rivera and José Clemente Orozco, he was one of the most famous of the "Mexican muralists".
The Whitney show, “Vida Americana: Mexican Muralists Remake American Art,” is a study in revisionism, recasting the standard story so that those formerly disregarded & excluded from the canon of modern American art are instead given a place in it @nybooks https://t.co/FvILoOLp1E
Our alumnus Austin David Conrad (Ryman '13) and fellow artist Samantha Aguilar partook in Paint The City Peaceful, a grassroots effort of muralists and local community members coming together to create art with meaningful messages surrounding racial injustice and inequality.

So lately I've been looking at a grip of #Mexican #artists.. I settled in on Jorge González Camarena.
His work really resonates with me.
I really appreciate his sensibilities.
His stylization is powerful.
The work of these muralists seems to lend itself well to sequential work.
At #ICON10, Louise Jones, aka Ouizi, will discuss making large-scale public art during the Detroit muralists panel
