Aztec Ghost Groove


12″ x 12″ | Oil on Vinyl
Painted on 12″ vinyl record, for the recent 2nd Anniversary show at La Bodega gallery last weekend, it was began as a study and a play on the once mighty Mesoamerican empire.  So you have the dragon God (Quetzalcoatl) manifesting from the spilled blood of it’s indigenous populous, crackling through the grooves of the sacred calendar, and haunting time with it’s vibrations.
Given that it’s only been just over a week since Bowie passed, the message of old Gods and phantom sounds, feel’s particularly raw and prescient.
