Description

[ID: Artwork is in black in. At the very center is a large figure with an alien-like, skeletal face wearing a zoot suit with long pants and a tando hat with a feather. The chest area is artwork of a person in jail. The belt clip has “RIP” inscribed on it. On the coat, there are various people with face paint wearing various clothes, headbands and sombreros. At the folds of the pants below one of them reads “The roots to all evil” and the other fold reads “Money rules the world.” Shoes for cars and there are people inside the cars. One of them is holding a molotov cocktail and the other is giving the middle finger. To the left of the figure is a couple hugging each other with the man in mariachi attire holding a guitar and a short woman with long hair wearing a dress and holding a rose in one hand. At the far right is the Virgin Mary holding a candle with both arms wearing a long cloak spotted with stars; with a circle surrounded with barbwires behind her head. In the background of the large figure is a scythe that looks like a pole with a street sign that reads “Wrespect the St.” At the top left-hand corner is the moon with a mustache and a skull with flowers around its head. At the bottom is a street with a sidewalk and walls; numerous miniature figures wreaking havoc. The walls have graffiti that reads “Wrisper” with “arte” crossed out. At the lower right-hand corner are two dogs with one in chains.]
