As part of the Igloo Hong Project program, El Mac has recently been painting some small format walls in Morocco.

Two of them are located in the city of Agdz. The first is dedicated to Mohamed Ait El Caid, a 92 year old respected citizen who lives in the building next to the painted wall. The second wall, located on a one hundred year old rustic, adobe wall, portrays the artist’s cat. This work refers to the traditional respect that there is in Morocco for these animals and whose origins lead back to a story about Muhammad.
