Many pieces here are mono, or with minimal colour, and are prints that have been stuck on the wall, most carry a political message.

It is estimated that 300+ people were massacred at a student protest in Tlatelolco plaza on Oct. 2, 1968, reports have revealed at least 360 government snipers were stationed on rooftops around the square.

They opened fire and began shooting peaceful protesters and students.
