Pressure on City Mayor to open public space (2 years late)
Strengths: The “number-change” action was really important for the diffusion of the act providing an unusual story and some photos that with their powerful image where published in many newspapers. We achieved keeping the attention on this place, raising the pressure on de mayor, forcing the inauguration of the square after almost two years of delay and 5 announced inaugurations date by de City Council. All that through the organization of an all day event that involved the entire neighborhood.
Difficulties: Finding, storing, cutting and painting the 125 cardboards of 22 x 115 cm was a long and very boring job.
