In the picturesque setting of Crans Montana, Switzerland, a stunning 16 x 30ft mural titled “Resurgence” has transformed the landscape and captured the essence of a remarkable story. Painted for the Vision Arts Festival, this vibrant piece honours the incredible journey of the bearded vulture, a bird that has soared from the brink of extinction back into the skies of its ancestral home.
Once misunderstood and feared, the bearded vulture faced a dire fate due to myths that painted it as a threat to livestock and even children. These misconceptions, fueled by human fears and ignorance, nearly wiped out a species that plays a vital role in its ecosystem. However, thanks to relentless conservation efforts, the bearded vulture has made an inspiring comeback over the years, reclaiming its place in the alpine skies.
