The bronze sculpture El Zulo by Víctor Ochoa has been one of the most striking works of art at the port of Cartagena since 2009. The statue pays tribute to the victims of terrorism and depicts a naked man sitting dejected and with his legs embraced.

Very realistic representation. Everything is then carefully inspected from different sides.

El Zulo - Sculpture for the victims of terrorism. At the westernmost point of the Explanada de los Héroes de Cavite y Santiago de Cuba, in the port of Cartagena, is this colossal sculpture by Víctor Ochoa, an expert in monumental sculpture. The city had it erected in honor of the victims of terrorism. Made of hollow bronze, it is 4.80 meters high and weighs two tons. It represents a seated naked, defenseless man holding his legs with his head bowed in an almost fetal position.
