March 28, 2012 Gal·la
In 2010, this sun stencil was created on the beach of the Delta del Ebro in Spain.

It is the portrait of a little girl named Gal·la who lives in the Delta.

It was created as part of the first planetary art exhibit called "eARTh" curated by 350.org.
Designed as a sun stencil, the piece was made to bring attention to the problem of sunlight/heat that cannot escape back into space because of greenhouse gases.

Gal·la's portrait was constructed using a labyrinth design to allude to the tenacity of the human spirit to find a solution.

The entire labyrinth is made up of simple shade material and wood posts.
Designed and created by Jorge Rodriguez-Gerada
Originally discovered on Booooooom.
