The inspiration came from the Mexico Ghost Festival and the local customs of Mexico. On the festival, Mexicans celebrate the completion of the life cycle, and meet the reunion of the living and the dead every year. People worship the dead without sorrow or even singing and dancing to celebrate the festival with their loved ones. They believe that death is not the end of life, but the beginning of a new life. The main elements extracted from the festival are developed into patterns and texture.
