Dead Man’s Garden

Maria from Tropical Flowering Zone is a GLaM Rockstar! Check this out!

“This is my favorite mural it has no name so I call it “Deadman’s Garden”.  It depicts a man growing a plant out of his chest cavity.”

photo © Maria I Firpi Mazur
photo © Maria I Firpi Mazur

“The man is dead with his head covered. The plant, however, has no flower, but a heart is depicted as being the bloom.”

photo © Maria I Firpi Mazur

The bird on the dead man’s legs is a San Pedrito (Puerto Rican Tody), an endemic bird on the island found nowhere else in the world.

“The heart was painted with lots of detail. Perhaps there is an analogy of the heart with the flower since both need air; the plants through transpiration, and humans through respiration.”
