NOT A GAME ITS PEOPLE

What a pleasure to create this “NOT A GAME ITS PEOPLE” mural in Brooklyn.
The mural showcases the impacts of vulture hedge funds based in NY exploiting Nations in economic crisis like PR, Venezuela, Congo and many others in Caribbean and Latin American nations. Sovereign debt is a colonial vestige that is exploited by Wall Street. And we can join the efforts of @cuffh @gohedgeclippers @popdemoc @ny4change to pass a legislation that can regulate their moves.

JOrdan rebellionaire shoe mural

I was asked by UNKNWN store in miami to create a mural in collaboration with Jordan to commemorate the the drop of their Rebellionaire shoe that honors the first Air Jordan shoe that the NBA tried to ban Jordan from wearing on the court. I wanted the focus of the mural to be on the people that the Jordan brand has had such a massive presence and connection with. the other athletes that go out everyday and play like it’s the finals.

Sylvia Fowles tribute mural

Created in collaboration with Bleacher report to honor highly awarded WNBA player Sylvia Fowles

miami diversity mural

I was asked to create a mural that reflects the diversity in the city of miami by MLK mural project for the solidarity for change project.

And I thought about all the different ethnicities and cultures that reside in Miami and how music is one of the biggest connecting factors. You might be chilling and singing songs that derive from your haitian heritage that then leads you into the new Bachata song you heard the little boy dancing to down the street, then you remember the older cuban songs you would hear being performed while walking through lil Havana. The culture is rich and fun. it’s what makes Miami the wonderful city we love.
