We recently brought Texas street artist The Death Head into the studio following the closing of ‘Call It Street Art, Call It Fine Art’: An exhibition at the Station Museum of Contemporary Art. The show brought together twenty-one graffiti and mural artists recognized for their work in public spaces across the city of Houston, TX. Lady Lazarus worked with The Death Head to create a 6-color silkscreen from his gallery aerosol piece titled ‘Duck Tank’. The resulting print is sized at 24×30” on heavy Cranes Lettra 110# cotton rag fine art paper from a signed, numbered, & embossed edition of 20.

Texas based and self-taught artist, The Death Head grew up in Mexico and found inspiration for his artwork in the Day of the Dead traditions, also embracing the punk rock movement’s attitude. He expresses these interests in his art, by mythologizing his environment while interpreting the brutal, primal, and animalistic side of the human form. He refers to his style as modern symbolism::
