ABOUT THIS PIECE

The mural holds both symbolic and practical significance. On one side, a polo player represents elegance, tradition, and competitive spirit, symbolizing prestige and camaraderie. On the other side, a large horse portrait embodies strength, unity, and connection to nature. Practically, the mural inspires players, enhances community identity, educates viewers, and beautifies the park. It stands as a testament to the timeless bond between humans and horses, inviting visitors to appreciate athleticism and teamwork.  - Oneida Trevino
