The TWR (Trans World Radio) mural next to the Hato roundabout has actually been there long before 2017. The first mural was put there in 1998, painted by Paul and Joellen Gallo. But because of all that Bonairean sun and salty air there wasn't much to see anymore. TWR decided it needed a complete renovation and commissioned a new mural. The theme had to be the same: the magical underwater world of Bonaire. The mural was made with help of computer images. Pictures of colorful fish and other sea creatures were chosen, enlarged and arranged in a composition. The montage was overlaid with a grid pattern and this was projected in parts on a wall. The projections were then traced on paper. A process that took the artists two days.
While on Bonaire the papers were first traced with charcoal, then pencil and finally on the wall with marker. And only then the painting could start! Because TWR is a Christian broadcasting company they accompanied the painting with a text from a psalm: "See the works of the Lord, and his wonders in the deep."
