Viewers applaud Chilean artist Estefania Leighton's mural on gender equality

Princess Tarfa

Estefania Leighton, also known as Stifi, is a mural painter who has been working in Santiago de Chile for the past ten years. Stifi strongly believes that art is an effective instrument. It works especially for bringing forth social changes in society.

The impressive mural artwork by Chilean artist Stfi Leigthon, which is the component of the "Breaking Barriers for Gender Equality", a movement which is led by a footwear brand. It is now painted on a building in Santiago's Yungay neighborhood. Equality was created with an organic paint made of a lime base in artisanal paint, which has a unique quality to absorb CO2 and removes toxic polluting particles during the drying phase.

Stfi, the artist, urges audiences to reconsider the enormous disparity that persists today among men and women. At the end of the day, Stfi's mural encourages viewers to analyze their surroundings and to think about bringing forth beneficial changes, something which Stfi did while making this mural by featuring a male character in her art, where she usually only paints women in her murals.

The mural's message of diversity and tolerance was echoed by the community that assisted her in completing the mural.
