Day of the Dead on wheels: How a van is sharing the tradition with migrant communities through art

In Charlotte, North Carolina, a black food truck moves slowly down the road. It doesn't deliver food it delivers art. Inside, lights, copal incense, pan de muerto (sweet bread for Day of the Dead), and a calavera (skull decoration) welcome anyone who steps into the Mobile Art Studio, the traveling project of Mexican artivist Rosalia Torres-Weiner, 64, which this year's Dia de Muertos, or Day of Dead has been transformed into an immersive, free experience for Latino communities in the southern United States.
