Students from the Master in Teaching and Learning (Art) program collaborated with Spanish street artist Pep Walls, using their academic studies to inspire their work.

Lectures on topics such as the Megalithic Temples of Malta, the Knights Hospitaller, Maltese genetics, and connections between diaspora and contemporary art guided their research. Professors Nicholas C. Vella, Emanuel Buttigieg, Joseph Borg, and Thomas Scicluna contributed their expertise.

The students chose a “multispecies” approach, linking Maltese identity to the land, sea, and endemic species while incorporating elements of Tberfil, a cherished local font.

Contributors to the mural include Sherise Attard, Edera Muscat, Kristine Saliba Caruana, Peter Aquilina, Carlos Cutajar, Aden Cacciattolo, and Mikael Scicluna, combining art and history in a vivid celebration of Malta.
