La Puesta del Sol

Ulises “Ulillo” Rivera (Costa Rica)

Located at Plaza Mercado, Las Catalinas.

Created in 2023 for the town of Las Catalinas, La Puesta del Sol (The sunset) is a mural inspired by the unique atmosphere and natural beauty of its surroundings.

Situated in a place defined by tranquility and a deep connection with nature, the work reflects the elements that make Las Catalinas so special: the beautiful landscape, the sound of the ocean, the surrounding architecture, vibrant colors, and the magical corners that invite visitors to pause and take in their surroundings.

Conceived specifically for its location, the mural becomes part of the visual identity of the town, creating a connection between art, architecture, and the environment. It celebrates the feeling of being immersed in a place where nature and thoughtful design coexist in harmony.

The project was made possible through the collaboration of a dedicated team whose contributions brought the work to life, from the initial planning and logistics to its final realization.
