No Dar Papaya — Sticker

Description

No dar papaya. Literally “don’t give papaya”, and the first commandment of Colombian street life. Phone face-up on the table, laptop bag on the back of the chair, chain out on the wrong bus: all of it is dar papaya.

The follow-up is merciless — papaya puesta, papaya partida: papaya offered is papaya taken. It sounds like a warning about theft. It is really a philosophy about paying attention.

Neo-traditional tattoo work: a serpent coiled around the fruit, heavy outlines, tight palette. Dangerous rather than tropical.
