Jesus Reyes
A new art display is bringing bright colors and culture to downtown Palm Springs.
The new art installation called “Deriva Floral” by artist Daniel “Mestiz” Valero originates from San Miguel de Allende, Mexico, Palm Springs’ sister city
The colorful floral display is located on Museum Way and highlights the cultural and artistic ties between Palm Springs and San Miguel de Allende.
The project is part of an ongoing collaboration that also allows student and culinary exchange programs between the two cities.
“These types of relationships and celebration of friendships are so important because they send a very strong message. that we can have great projects working together and that without having to worry about borders or divisions, uh, whether political or cultural, so this sends a really strong message to everyone in our community,” said
Residents can enjoy the installation outside the Palm Springs Art Museum through mid-November.
