La colonia Zacamil en Mejicanos, está siendo intervenida artísticamente con murales en los edificios, parte del Custom Made Stories, una organización extranjera. Su objetivo es lograr una reurbanización en "La supermanzana", donde artistas nacionales e internacionales pintan sus mejores diseños, incluso algunos en 3d. Hasta el momento se han intervenido al menos 20, de un poco más de 30 edificaciones.

#AndreaRavoMattoni’s murals in Zacamil create an ongoing dialogue on Edificio 117. Santa Zacamil, with her earthly backdrop, gazes upward with resilience and hope, while Plato and Aristotle’s hand gestures reflect a millennia-old debate between heaven and earth. #proyectozacamil

These flags were the product of intergenerational collaboration, with participants working alongside one another and Matteo to design symbols of shared identity. Now in Italy, Matteo is refining them at #Gate44 before returning to #Zacamil to select the flag with the community.
