Mijas police get cordoned off

Mijas police cordon off

On Friday, March 21st, local artist D. Darko surprised residents and tourists in Mijas Pueblo with his latest work.

A local police car totally covered in police tape with the printed words ‘Poesia Local’ instead of ‘Policía Local’. The cordoned-off, or rather, ‘cordoned in’ vehicle raised more than a few eyebrows with curious onlookers wondering what was going on, capturing the moment on their social media accounts.

After the stunt in Plaza Virgen de la Peña, it was the turn of Las Lagunas de Mijas in front of the Manuel España Theatre and municipal library, where librarians joined the commemoration of Poetry Day by setting up stands with selections of poetry books.

Darko also took to social media later that day to say, ‘I want to thank Mijas council, especially @culturamijas, for giving me the opportunity to carry out this project with full freedom, as well as the town’s Local Police for their treatment and predisposition at all times.’
