The mural will be inaugurated this month at Trindade metro station in Porto.

Desgined by artist Miguel Januário, measures 9.5 metres in width and 3.25 metres in height, comprising 736 tiles. It features contributions from around 1,500 participants, including artists such as Vhils, Capicua, Gonçalo Mar, AkaCorleone, and Tamara Alves, alongside tiles painted by children, adults, and seniors from diverse backgrounds.

This project initially stemmed from a proposal by the Portuguese Communist Party (PCP) for a public art initiative but soon expanded to include wider community participation.

Workshops held across 2023 and 2024 invited participants to reflect on the fulfillment, or lack there of the revolution’s principles, resulting in tiles representing themes of education, justice, peace, unions, and children’s rights.

At the end of the workshops, Miguel Januário had to decide how to arrange the tiles in the two murals, and in this process, he began by sorting them by colour. “We used red, black, yellow, and green for painting, along with the white base of the tile. Half of the tiles were white, while the other 50 percent had a coloured base, both in Porto and Lisbon. Of those with a coloured base, half were red.”

Januário arranged the tiles by colour to form a giant pixelated carnation at the centre of each mural, using green for the stem, red for the petals, and darker tiles to create a framing effect. The word "Cumprir" is subtly embedded within the design, with its letters left incomplete, representing a symbolic reminder that much remains to be fulfilled.
