    The phrase Memento Mori reminds us to be aware of our mortality. David de Lara will die one day, but he’s ok with that. In the meantime David returns to Pump Project Art Complex with an event where an art show meets a cabaret with an exhibit of his artwork, songs by Luna Tart, burlesque by The Jigglewatts, and music by Southern Drama on Saturday, August 30, 2008 from 7-11 pm.

    The trademark girls David creates have always represented moments in his life, however, there are times when things don’t seem real. Those moments helped inspire some of his recent artwork. While working he also thought about beliefs related to Día de los Muertos where life doesn’t truly begin until we die. The life we have now is what we make of it. We should celebrate it.
