Area 54
Mexico is a hot spot for UFO activity. In this artwork the reputation of alien visitation is fantasized and showcased in a comical way. A dark Mexican Sky with a flying saucer that is abducting cows and an extra terrestrial musician is singing the song of the dead. Decorated in the spirit of Dia De Los Muertos or Day of the Dead, this painting celebrates this Mexican holiday. The Alien Cantina on the left is owned by a skeleton and his cat. The flying skeleton is an undead sugar skull traveling towards the spaceship watching over the graveyard below.
