Mexican muralists call for peace in Ukraine

Mexican graffiti artists and muralists unveiled their joint work in Mexico City on Friday in support of the victims of the conflict in Ukraine.

The six artists, each adding their own designs with their own distinctive style, sought to create a bond with the Ukrainian community and show their support for peace.

The six murals, painted on a wall decorated in the colors of the Ukrainian flag a few blocks from the Russian Embassy, each feature Mexican and Ukrainian cultural elements.

"We live a lot of violence all the time here in Mexico; that's why I think it's important to talk about Ukraine because we can empathize with what's happening there," said muralist Jorge Tellache.
