The mural spells out "FARC-EP", the acronym for Fuerzas Armadas Revolucionarias de Colombia – Ejército del Pueblo (Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia – People's Army). Each letter contains symbolic imagery: the letter "F" displays the FARC-EP flag; the letters "A", "R", and "C" portray prominent figures in military uniform, likely revered within the movement; the letter "E" features communist iconography with a red background and a hammer and sickle; and the letter "P" shows a white dove, commonly associated with peace.
