Street Art

During my stay in New York I went out exploring the streets and observing the urban art of Brooklyn. There are many walls adorned with colourful and breathtaking pieces created by some amazing street artists.

The following photographs were taken on my walks through the streets of Brooklyn.

I was lucky enough to meet on my walk Moira, and her amazing Art Heart Bus - a mobile art studio space. She told me all about the plans for the interior transformation of the bus, and I told her about Steemit.

Hey @opheliafu - are you still in New York? I'm travelling up to NYC from New Jersey tomorrow for a couple of days, it would be great to meet up if you're around.

No - back in the UK now. What a shame it would have been good to meet up - which area are you staying in Manhattan or Brooklyn? My work is showing at The Crypto Renaissance exhibition in Bushwick Brooklyn until August 15 :D

I'm in Manhattan but I'll try to pass through Brooklyn to see the exhibition.

Oh, I think I just saw art by Boxhead, an artist Sam and I know.

The figures with boxes on their heads on the large wall ? Yes, I think that was Boxhead- it was behind gates so i couldn't get in for a closer look.

You can see 'Boxhead' just above the white car

Amazing to think she was part of our warehouse community in London...


Every time there are more athletes who express their art in the streets, street art gained much ground in much of the world. In my province of Coorreintes we are full of these murals, so they call it the city of the murals.
I wish you a wonderful weekend@opheliafu these images are very beautiful

Great Post 😆

Thank you for the lovely and colourful walk through Brooklyn!

Cool art and a lovely city

The way you ended the show tho
Funny... 😂😂

I too love to hunt out street out when I'm in a new place. You found some amazing pieces and the colours!

Good work on sharing steemit with the bus artist, just the sort who'd make a wonderful addition to our great platform.

Brooklyn has changed so much since I last saw it in the 1970s. Thank for this eye-opening presentation!
