Megan Oldhues’ first mural in Tulum was created as part of the first phase of the Los Amigos de la Esquina Foundation project. Based on an everyday street scene, the piece turns a local moment into something intimate and monumental, centering childhood, movement, and the quiet bond between a boy, his bicycle, and his dog
Artist: Megan OldHues
A quiet street scene made monumental, where childhood, movement, and daily life become memory.

Old Hues
Walking Through Mexico City
Acrylic on canvas, 2026
This piece by Old Hues is built from photographic observation and memory. The artist continuously documents everyday life through images, later translating them into fragmented compositions that sit between painting and collage.
In this work, a fleeting scene of a person riding a bicycle alongside a dog becomes suspended in time. The image is broken into layered brushstrokes and digital-like distortions, creating a sense of movement, as if the moment is dissolving while it happens.
Rendered in a limited blue palette, the painting shifts away from realism into perception. It is not about the exact moment, but about how memory holds it—partial, blurred and constantly in motion.

These works exist between places, time and process.
Each image begins as a fleeting moment observed in the street—captured, then reworked through painting. What appears as a finished piece is often part of something larger: a mural already completed, or one yet to be realized.
The compositions move between cities and scales, shifting from public walls to intimate formats. Scenes of everyday life—figures in motion, encounters, familiar presences—are translated through fragmentation, where memory becomes as important as the original moment.
Rather than documenting reality, the works reconstruct it. They hold traces of movement, distance and transformation, existing in a constant transition between observation and reinterpretation.
