“Mis abarcas desiertas” (My Empty Goatherd Shoes)

2015

C/Geranio, 1

Miguel Hernández’s worn and empty shoes are represented as the only element in this sober mural where black and white prevail. It is an homage to the poet and his poem Las abarcas desiertas about January the 6th. He used to leave his shoes at the window waiting for presents from the Magi but the day after they were always empty.

Por el cinco de enero
de la majada mía
mi calzado cabrero
a la escarcha salía.

Y hacia el seis, mis miradas
hallaban en sus puertas
mis abarcas heladas,
mis abarcas desiertas.
