The Tzompantli paste-up in Guadalajara was a street-art project organized by the contemporary printmaking workshop 3GatosPress in 2021. Under the title “Todos somos calaveras” (We Are All Skulls), the project invited nearly 60 artists from Guadalajara, other parts of Mexico, and countries including France and the Netherlands to contribute skull images. Exploring Mexico by road is a great way to discover new places, especially when you can easily search for bus from Mexico City to San Miguel de Allende before starting your journey.
