Today’s Daily Pick is from Trainer AletsisG (@AletsisG) in Mexico 🇲🇽!
This postcard showcases a beautiful artistic mural located in the heart of Cuauhtémoc, Mexico City, Mexico (https://t.co/2tWiimImCJ). It is painted on a temporary construction wall adjacent to Expo Reforma (https://t.co/a7M2Ytd6WU), an area well-known for large-scale contemporary street art and urban interventions. It is one of many impressive and gorgeous murals that are part of this wall.
The mural portrays La Llorona, or "The Weeping Woman” (https://t.co/DmvCdevNQN), one of the most iconic figures in Mexican folklore.
Rather than depicting her purely as a terrifying ghost, modern Mexican street art typically reinterprets her through a blend of realism, surrealism, and pre-Hispanic symbolism. The portrait captures an intense, melancholic gaze—often accompanied by flowing hair, aquatic or smoky motifs (referencing the canals and lakes of ancient Tenochtitlan/Xochimilco where she is said to roam), and rich, contrasting street-art colors that evoke grief, mysticism, and cultural heritage.
While the exact signature of the muralist is not clearly visible (I saw this piece in person and looked for a tag), the broader Cuauhtémoc district serves as an open-air gallery for prominent Mexican urban artists as well as local collectives participating in CDMX street art festivals. Because urban murals in Mexico City are frequently rotated or painted over for new cultural initiatives, independent street pieces in this corridor are often documented primarily through local street-art photography archives rather than permanent plaques. Eventually, this stunning piece will disappear.
⭐️ We ❤️ you too, Sierra!

This postcard showcases the "Caballo Astral" (Astral Horse) mural in Cuauhtémoc, Mexico City, Mexico (https://t.co/2tWiimImCJ). It is a landmark piece of contemporary urban art in Mexico City's artistic landscape.
Painted as part of the Art Walk México festival, the artwork directly celebrates the Chinese Year of the Horse in 2014. It depicts a monumental, stylized horse leaping across the building's facade. The body of the creature is rendered as a moving galaxy, blending a star-studded sky, a vibrant full moon, and rolling mountain ranges. The front section of the horse features striking indigenous-inspired geometric chevrons and eye-catching tribal pattern layers that anchor the cosmic theme to traditional Mexican folk art motifs.
The mural was created by Aaron Glasson (https://t.co/BBxLr7deh4), a multidisciplinary artist and creative director originally from New Zealand. Known globally for his large-scale public murals and vibrant use of color, Glasson’s style frequently explores:
Interconnected ecosystems: Blending natural subjects like animals and marine environments with human portraits.
Psychedelic and abstract dimensions: Creating surreal imagery meant to explore the relationship between the physical world and spirituality.
Global environmental activism: He has served as a creative director for PangeaSeed Foundation's Sea Walls: Artists for Oceans (https://t.co/JdLi3mcJ83), producing public art projects worldwide focused on ocean conservation.

Today’s first “Honorable” mention is from Trainer AletsisG (@AletsisG) in Mexico 🇲🇽!
This postcard showcases a striking street art piece in Cuauhtémoc, Mexico City, Mexico (https://t.co/2tWiimImCJ).
The mural features a highly detailed, realistic depiction of a roaring jaguar (el jaguar), showcasing the powerful feline with vibrant electric blue eyes and an intense, stylized snarl. In Mexican urban art, the jaguar is a frequently used symbol that connects modern street expression to ancestral Mesoamerican heritage, representing strength, protection, and the untamed spirit of nature.
Unfortunately, I could not verify the artist for this specific piece.
⭐️ for a nice sticker pairing!
