WHAT IS MEZCAL?

The Movement to Eliminate Zeal-Less Corporate Aesthetic Lethargy (MEZCAL) is reclusive artist Bash Wathier’s campaign against corporate hotel art.

Bash founded MEZCAL in response to a growing outbreak of Impotent-Induced Ischemia, a dreadful condition caused by prolonged exposure to Bar Harbor Beige and Gentlemen’s Gray.
