Valencia, 2023: A mural in Valencia dares to communicate beyond its confines. “The Delirium of Juan Carlos I”, affectionately dubbed the “Juanca Wall”, stands not just as a piece of street art but as a bold critique against the actions of the powerful.
At the helm of this venture are two artists, Fasim and Mr. Kern. In the midst of Valencia’s scorching heat, they chose to depict Juan Carlos I, Spain’s ex-monarch and legal fugitive. The imagery is striking - a down-tempo human profile of the king, which for Fasim, instantly brought back the ex-monarch’s infamous statement: “I’m so sorry, it won’t happen again”. But beyond these words, the mural incorporates a hauntingly vivid representation of a real photograph - the king alongside a lifeless elephant.
