During their visit to the Netherlands, the collective painted a mural in The Hague in solidarity to Bolivia’s demand for a sovereign seaport in Chile. This work inspired them to create El rey que ilumina los pueblos del mundo (in Spanish: The king who illuminates all folks of the world) which depicts ‘the King Star’, as the sun is often referred to in Spanish. It represents the collective’s sentiment that the sun shines for everybody, without discriminating against any creature.
