ESPIRITU DEL MAR

"Espiritu Del Mar", is about connecting youth with ocean life and all living creatures. The young girl is holding an endangered Atlantic right whale affected by climate change and trapped in fishing nets. She is looking down with empathy and connecting spiritually with this amazing creature. I wanted indigenous children to see themselves in this artwork and also wanted to show our youth we must treat our planet and all life with respect and empathy. We are all connected and are all one." - Marka27

NEO INDIGENOUS JAGUAR

The Olmec and the Maya witnessed this animal's habits, adopting the jaguar as an authoritative and martial symbol, and incorporated the animal into their mythology. The jaguar stands today, as it did in the past, as an important symbol in the lives of those who coexist with this feline. MARKA27's Neo Indigenous Jaguar is a perfect example of his Neo Indigenous style, incorporating ancient aesthetics with graffiti and street culture.
