The collective and solidarity exhibition "Injertos" (Grafts), in support of the Nueva Fundación Los Albares, will be open from February 17 to March 17 at the Molino Cebolla Museum.

The works consist of combining different artistic techniques based on photographs of the Cieza Flowering. Each artist will reinterpret the image, adding their own personal and artistic touch.

From this fusion of pictorial techniques comes the name chosen for the exhibition "Grafts", very much in line with the theme used as base, agriculture and flowering.
