Write a short summary of the ambient work.
Bottles tiles are outdoors that leverage in a good way the use of public spaces promoting general health awareness about sun issues.
Is there any cultural context that would help the jury understand how this work was perceived by people in the country where it ran?
First, the issue is very cultural; Arequipa - Peru, suffers the highest UV radiation level due to its geographic ubication, dry weather, the city's height, and ozone depletion. For example, its radiation level is 10x more times than Inglaterra.
People in Arequipa walk long hours under the sun to take a bus, and young people walk 3 hours to school. They usually eat and do daily activities on the streets without shadows.
Cancer cases doubled in 2022 vs. 2021.
Something important, Arequipeña Bottles also have high UV protection (400-UV) compared to other beer bottles.
