Answer

What makes Joan Aguiló’s murals in Mallorca different from other street art?

Joan Aguiló’s murals focus on ordinary people, local stories and familiar scenes from everyday Mallorca. His portraits are often large, realistic and placed on building facades, so they feel rooted in the neighbourhood rather than decorative. The result is street art that works as public art and as a kind of local memory.
