The project Peyote Ugly is a result of a collaboration between four artists and was created during their residency at Arthouse Pani, in Tequisquiapan, Mexico. The artists created a series of artworks inspired by Mexican folk culture and mythology. They then constructed a narrative strongly intertwined with the elements of Aztec beliefs, as well as humorous and entertaining events. The tongue in cheek storyline depicts the artists in an adventurous saga taking place in the Mexican Jungle where they steal ancient artifacts, and as a result, are on the run from the wrath of awakened supernatural beings.

The art created for this drop is truly unique as it encompasses a variety of techniques. No creative discipline has been spared in this mixture. Practices ranging from painting, sculpture, printmaking, etching to its digital counterparts like 3D sculpting, virtual reality, augmented reality, 3D scanning and photography, make this project truly one of a kind.
