*** About Skull Symbolism

***: The skull, a universal symbol of mortality, has been used in art and folklore for centuries across various cultures to represent the transient nature of life. In Western culture, particularly within themes of memento mori, it serves as a reminder of the inevitability of death. However, skulls have also evolved into symbols of rebellion, freedom, and intellectual subversion. When combined with national symbols, like the American flag, it can take on new meanings related to national identity, pride, and sometimes criticism. This duality allows the skull to remain a potent element for provocative artistic expression.
