La Muerte |
|
|
The images in this section pertain to the Day of the Dead,
Dia de los Muertos,
a traditional Mexican Holiday within my cultural heritage. The festival is
celebrated on All Soul’s Day and it honors the Dead. This series
sometimes mocks death, some images are dark and have meaning, and others
are light and fun, but all the while aware that death in folklore is not
the same as death in reality.
In this collection I am presenting traditional cultural concepts in a
contemporary light. La Muerte is a parallel existence to the living.
Growing up I was taught not to fear death, but to accept it as another
phase in the cycle of life. These images are my interpretations based on
my experiences and inspirations.
This series has grown to be one of the largest, and most
easily recognized series of my work. -Oscar Lozoya These images are protected by Federal Copyright Law and cannot be reproduced without the express written consent of the Copyright Owner - Oscar Lozoya.
