Oakland’s unique cultural legacies come to life through the story of an unlikely partnership between Oakland artists Pancho Peskador, a Chilean studio painter, and Desi Mundo, a Chicago-born aerosol artist. Despite threats to their ambitious plans for a four-story mural in the heart of Oakland, three years of intensive community engagement—which included mining historical archives, interviewing culture-keepers, and giving numerous design presentations to local residents—pays off with the resulting mural, The Universal Language, one of Oakland’s most iconic public artworks.
