Abstract

This study analyses the phenomenon of mosaic skulls that have appeared in A Coruña since 2021 as an expression of open-source anonymous street art. Drawing on Mediated Discourse Analysis (Scollon, 2001) and Nexus Analysis (Scollon & Wong Scollon, 2004), the proliferation of these skulls is interpreted as a nexus of offline/online practices – subversive, self-managed, and participatory – that reconfigure the urban landscape and construct a collective identity around the local myth of Xerión.

Este estudio analiza el fenómeno de las calaveras de mosaico aparecidas en A Coruña desde 2021 como expresión de arte urbano anónimo de código abierto. Desde el análisis del discurso mediado (Scollon, 2001) y el Nexus Analysis (Scollon y Wong Scollon, 2004), la proliferación de las calaveras se interpreta como un nexo de prácticas offline-online, subversivas, autogestionadas y participativas, que reconfigura el paisaje urbano y construye una identidad colectiva en torno al mito local de Xerión.
