David Bowie Skull by Raymond

Description & Inspiration

In this provocative pop-art portrait, David Bowie’s legendary Aladdin Sane lightning bolt merges with a skeletal face, creating a striking memento mori. The piercing blue eyes remind us of Bowie’s immortal presence, while the skull symbolizes the fragile boundary between life and legacy.

Technique & Materials

Executed in Raymond’s signature fusion of acrylic pouring and stencil technique, the work contrasts vibrant neon tones with raw skeletal textures. The metallic grey background emphasizes the bold lightning bolt and Bowie’s eternal gaze.

Impact & Meaning

This artwork bridges glam rock flamboyance with mortality, reflecting Bowie’s fearless reinvention and his ongoing cultural immortality. It is both a tribute and a bold reinterpretation of his iconic persona.
