Five Sacred Colors of Corn

2021 Precita Eyes Muralists Association

©1991 Precita Eyes Muralists

  • ​Dimensions: 13" high by 100' wide
  • Materials: Acrylic & Relief 
  • Intern Project

"Five Sacred Colors of Corn” at the entrance to Balmy Alley on the corner of 24th Street.  Created in 1991, then removed, reassembled and restored in 2021, it is one of the most visible mural in all the Mission.  The bright primary colors recall the children who helped design this mural in 1991 for the International Year of the Child. "We thought the mural was going to be temporary, that the building  was going to be torn down," Precita Eyes founder Cervantes noted. "But it stayed up for 30 years as the housing project kept being delayed." When the old structure was finally demolished in 2021 to build low-income units for seniors, developer Mercy Housing "realized that the community had grown up with this mural, and they should preserve it as a community cultural asset."


 Over the course of six months, the team documented, then removed, and finally reassembled the installation. 


Details in the mural include Huichol yarn paintings and sculptural wooden figures in relief recalling  the centrality of maize in the Mesoamerican cosmos; a woman giving birth; an Egyptian goddess devouring the sun, then giving birth to it; Grandfather Fire, framed by stalks of corn; an Earth goddess, a hummingbird and snake and dog as spirit animals.
