🏢 About the local organisation

The General Directorate of Youth, Participation and Volunteering (www.xuventude.xunta.es) is a department of the Xunta de Galicia (www.xunta.gal) whose priority is to meet the needs and concerns of the young population living in Galicia, firmly believing that youth has much to contribute to society as a whole. We work to improve the quality of life of young people in our autonomous community, developing actions and programs that benefit them, increase their well-being and allow them to improve their skill.

💼 What the programme involves

The creation of the cultural route "The painted forest of the CEUntara da Moura": Land Art, also known as earth art, environmental art or earthworks, is a current of contemporary art emerged in the United States in which the landscape and the work of art are closely linked. The place of intervention will be known as "A CEUntara da Moura". A natural space at the foot of the river Corzos where water, caves, stones and vegetation make up one of the most spicy areas of A Vega. The large existing caves form a natural labyrinth and in the quarry the river Corzos is buried forming a natural pool, leaving the outside again through a door, as they say, carved into the rock by the Moors, in the form of a white and noisy waterfall. Works: Design and conditioning of the place where the intervention will take place. Design of the billboards that will then be painted on the Legend of the Cantara da Moura. Definition of the intervention on the ground, mark tree points. Selection of the trees on which the paintings will go. Design of the figures and paintings on the path to be opened.
