Mother with children

The large-scale mural depicts a familiar scene. A mother holds two small children close. The shapes are soft, and the colors are vibrant. The work is by Spanish artist Miguel Peralta. He is known for his narrative murals. In his paintings, he often combines human emotions with elements from nature or the animal kingdom.

A Personal Story

This motif holds special significance for Miguel Peralta. Here, he depicts his own family. The central figure is his mother. The two boys are his brothers. Through this personal depiction, the facade becomes a monument to love and care. Peralta uses the traditional technique of mural painting to make personal stories visible to everyone. His works often resemble scenes from a colorful fairy tale.

Created in Public Space

The mural was created as part of the Art-Haus project by the city of Bergkamen. The project transforms gray facades into works of art—turning the city into an open-air gallery. Miguel Peralta’s painting brings warmth and emotion to public spaces. It invites passersby to pause for a moment. The image brings the theme of family to life in the midst of everyday city life.
