Thanks to photographer Lluis Olive-Bulbena, we have new photos today of a sophisticated mural program called Efimur, which heralds natural beauty and creates new examples in the urban landscape. Here is a quick visual journey through the vibrant and dynamic murals of the 2024 Efímurs Festival, held in the picturesque coastal town of L’Ametlla de Mar, south of Tarragona, Spain.
As an urban art festival, Efimur is directed and coordinated by the local artist Uri Márquez Cateura (@uri.kthr), who brought a selection of talented muralists this year. Supported by organizations like the Tourism Department of L’Ametlla de Mar, the City Council, and funded by the European Next Generation funds, the festival’s theme revolved around the integration of urban art with the natural and cultural landscapes of L’Ametlla de Mar.
Often referred to as “the most natural cove,” L’Ametlla de MarArtists featured a roster of mural painters from various countries gathered to paint large-scale murals, each infusing their unique styles and perspectives. The festival also featured a graffiti exhibition, special events, and electronic brunch, culminating in a vibrant community celebration.
Among the notable artists who participated in the 2024 edition were Abys from France, Asem & Manz from Madrid, Dridali from Valencia, Filite from Brazil, Kamma Marlo from Mollerussa, Kitsune Jolene from Belgium, Moxaico from Almeria, Mura from Brazil, Sucri & Furyo from Valencia, Uri Kthr from L’Ametlla de Mar, and Zabala from Bilbao.
