As we think of springtime in the Northern Hemisphere and Earth Day, we gaze upon Epic Uno’s iconic Skull & Flower series with favor. He presents the visual with humor, making it accessible – even if there are many interpretations of his intentions.
We’ve selected this most recent work in collaboration with The L.I.S.A. Project NYC to lead this year’s edition of Earth Day. What better way to speak about the perilous state of our planet than a flower with a skull at its center!
The cycle of life and death is endlessly reflected in the natural world. While this witty illustration may not have been intended to, we think he’s talking about the net negative effect we have had on the Earth’s environment.
Following is a recent selection of street artworks that address the climate, our role in protecting the natural world, and how frequently we fail. Here’s to our Mother Earth, with respect.
