Mustache is think and covers the upper lip, and curls up on the side in a handlebar mustache style. Overall mask is painted in a light colored tan tone with red undertones.
The Sun Serpent was a play produced by Childsplay and CALA Alliance, performed at Tempe Center for the Arts in 2011.
Artist and sculptor Zarco Guerrero made about 30 masks for the performance. All of the masks were made directly on the actors to better fit them during the performance.
