Custom Dia de los Muertos Be@rbrick by JPK

This custom 400% Be@rbrick by JPK is drop-dead gorgeous. The commissioned piece is Jon-Paul Kaiser's take on La Calavera Catrina, originally an early 1900s etching poking fun at native Mexicans' attempts to adopt the customs of upscale Europeans. Since then, the caricature has been appropriated into a symbol of the Dia de los Muertos holiday.Spiderwebs, roses, and tattoos complement a torn and tattered wedding dress, while piercing eyes make this piece particularly haunting.
