The motive of the snail was first painted on a wall in Buenos Aires. Originally painted in Spanish with with the command to follow facebook, twitter and youtube. Over the years the social media changed and now it ticktok and instagram replaced youtube and twitter. But the quote remains the same, taken from that of the Urugyian poet Mario Benedetti:” La vida es corta – mas, la nada es larga”.

It is an old motive that remains up to date.
