About this artwork
The piece is related to the sugar skulls used for the alters of Day of the Dead celebrated in Mexico and Latin America. The painting plays with the idea that reverence for the ancestors that came before us all had a history...this one in particular was some in the military.

« As an artist, I want to “awaken minds” to fleeting governing laws by playing pictorial detective, challenging the social norms of world cultures, bringing attention to the complexities of humanity. »
