Titled Time to flower is now, this mural by Tamara Alves reflects on equality through the dignity and autonomy of the human body. A woman holds a cluster of wild flowers against her chest: fragile yet persistent forms of life that grow freely despite the structures that surround them. In her gesture there is a quiet insistence on care, dignity, and presence.
The exposed female body is not presented as an object, but as a space of autonomy and self-determination: not offered, not consumed, but inhabited. It serves as a reminder that equality begins with the recognition of the body as sovereign ground.
Set against the rigid architecture of the city, these wild forms speak of a shared condition: different lives, different shapes, yet rooted in the same fragile freedom. They suggest that equality does not erase difference, but begins with the recognition of dignity in every body and every life.
