There are certain images that are repeated throughout El Pun18’s works. For instance, the use of the cat with a slanted eye gives you a sense that no character is left behind in his world of intense, psychedelic imagery. These characters become distorted and exaggerated to enhance the effect of the specific idea he is trying to convey at the time. What’s more, his image use runs the gamut from dark imagery such as skulls to a more happy ElPun18 with the incorporation of beautiful flowers, for example. “Big Bang” is one of El Pun 18’s signature pieces that sets the tone for what he is bringing to the art world: an explosion of ideas and thoughts he skillfully manages to squeeze into his works of art. Ultimately, the variations of images throughout his work lead his audience to believe that there isn’t a set theme to his work, but rather a constant exploration into new concepts and ideas that keep El Pun 18’s work fresh and captivating.
His good friend Mario E. Ramirez from tostfilms said: “Every moment that passes is one of learning and assess everything we have, Pun18is. Today is a day to celebrate your life and all the moments I shared with you. Thanks for including me and count on me for all the inventions you had. I will miss him dearly and continue forward like you taught me well. I love you like a brother. Rest in peace.” I met Pun18 in one of its murals on the street Canals, where Pun created the event of Urban Art “The Canals“. Pun 18’s is sure to take you on a psychedelic art trip, and you’ll love every minute of it.”
R.I.P. EL PUN 18!
