We are Maria Pilar Tolosa and Julián Facundo Razquin, and we live in Chas- comús, Argentina. We met at the National University of La Plata while studying Architecture and Visual Communication Design. After graduating, we decided to take a two-year trip together through Latin Ameri- ca. Attracted by the territory, cultures, and diversity of the countries we visited, we photographed every color, texture, and aspect of nature to later paint it on walls. In 2014, we formed CICLOPE, a project that combines different languages such as design, architecture, and communication. The strength of the work operates in close relationship with nature, power, and organic forms. At the same time, the elements come together as lines, curves, and geometric components that gener- ate the composition of the work as a whole. The street is undoubtedly the chosen space. In this way, we attempt to reinvent the world and transform, at least a little, social reality. Thus, we are able to become one with others, connect, and commu- nicate through affinity and inclusion. Participation in Festivals: Ñatinta (Bolivia) - Meeting of Styles (Peru) - Wall Street Stockholm (Sweden) - Seek Dundalk Festival (Ireland) - Art Aero Rap (Spain) - Street Art Boulogne Sur Mer (France) - Wall and Love (France) - Writer's Block (Netherlands)..
In the heart of Ghent, these residents wanted to bring more colour, energy, and fun to their street – and they certainly succeeded! ✨ Gracias al dúo de artistas argentino @ciclope_arg un vibrante mural de amapolas ahora ilumina esta fachada. La obra de arte no sólo crea un sorprendente contraste con los edificios circundantes, sino que también trae nueva vida a toda la calle y al barrio de Brugse Poort.

View this muralTake care of your flowers today, eternal gardener, for winter has returned before its time, bringing with it that old plague you had defeated. Have you learned nothing, foolish and cruel winter? If you cover the flowers with eternal ice, you will never see spring again.
View this muralA garden pruned of fright If a color could bring you back to these streets for thousands of days with their nights, Or fill today, with your voice, my Sunday soul, where your absence names me. If holding on with my hands, like roots, so as not to forget your laughter is no longer enough, I would tell you that I paint flowers that embellish oblivion and thus have my garden pruned of fright.
View this muralDreams of the same sky Two hearts beat in the stone, under the mantle of that ancient oak, one like lightning, that lights up the stormy skies, the other one, serene as the current that caresses the deep roots of its history. And although different, their eyes look at the same raven high above, hoping that its wings would spread a shadow that would cover equally that shattered earth. Oh, face divided in the stillness of the lake, Who will gather your waters to see them united in the mirror of the day? When the last deer falls in the nameless woods, it will be the wind that whispers what it has always known, that no line encloses the flight of dreams under your same sky.

View this muralFlowers from the future Flowers, like a promise, sprout in the garden inside my mind. They are the dreams shaping times to come. Sow today, calmly, Because those flowers from the future, Will be ours.

View this muralMy hands touch your stem and I breathe, I recall my years in distant lands, the quest burning my eyes, my soul. Nostalgia, wild and pure, of fields and faces and crossed seas. They say you bear my name, but I think: there is no name that encloses or describes, the sun that in your chest burns the snow that dwells in your flower. If a garden is memory and remembering is our watering, I will keep myself from drowning, my beautiful white poppy, in your recollection.
View this muralWhen the flowers bloom and the warm wind blows, my body floats on the breeze. I carry my memories from one home to another; I let life take care of the rest
View this muralSometimes, liquid moon, you bathe my flowers With sweet shadows that tremble in the wind. If the air could bring me your voice Like a whisper of the sea on my chest, Perhaps the pain would not twist its root So profound, so deep in my flesh. And between the branches of this dark garden The smiles that your mouth wove would sprout, Like foam and wind on the waves of oblivion.

View this mural"The work’s strength relies on an intimate relationship with nature, its power, and its organic shapes. Simultaneously, the presence of more rigid elements such as lines, curves, and geometrical components is introduced providing a sense of wholeness to the artistic composition. We were inspired by the nature that we discovered on our trip through Holland. We hope that the residents of Assen enjoy the colors and it brings a smile every time they see the mural!"
