Alba Fabre Paints Blanes Beach and Sa Palomera Mural for COMMUN
Alba Fabre has finalized a mural illustrating a beach scene from Blanes on the old Els Pins sports pavilion in Catalonia. According to the town council, this artwork was completed in July 2026 and features bathers and umbrellas with Sa Palomera's silhouette in the background. Positioned along Avinguda Josep Tarradellas, it aligns the painted beach with the actual coastal landscape. Fabre produced the mural for COMMUN, a project spearheaded by the urban art center B-Murals in Barcelona, with assistance from Blanes Town Council. In her reflections, she expressed gratitude to the team and beachgoers who paused to admire the mural. This piece serves as a familiar local sight, coinciding with the upcoming fourth Blanes Urban Fest in October.
