‘NYC Street Gallery Textural Vignette No. 214’ #texture #nycphotography #streetartnyc #sohonyc #streetart #nycstickers #streetartphotography #streetphotography

Flipped and upside down.

Good times with @barry.solway this weekend!! We’re working on something... and I’m really excited about it. #writing #story #screenplay

Props to @jcrivera for bringing our city to life... #streetart #publicart #chicagoart #murals #downtownchicago #chicagoartists

When I saw this hat being worn by one of the artists at @theotherartfair in Brooklyn this past weekend, I was instantly on a mission. @vidhyan told me that @miscelaneany had these @sonofanimmigrantny hats, so we b-lined it over there. Anyone who immigrates to a new country is brave, hardworking, resolute, & driven. I’m proud of what my father and many others have done in this country - contribute & dream big... on behalf of their family, and to honor the opportunity they were given. Adelante! #sonofanimmigrant #daughterofanimmigrant #immigration #immigrants #hardwork #dedication #bravery #selflessness

Forgive the angle, but this piece was up high!! So much to unpack with this one, certainly tag the artist if you know who made this.... that said, let’s get into it — the subject is wearing a cloak covered in stars which also has a crossbones on the sleeve. She has a halo, and in her right hand a cross with a $, an outline of Jesus, and a bundle of 5 arrows which tends to signify strength. The Eye of Providence is on her chest, surrounded by sunbeams. In her left hand she holds a firearm which is inscribed with the Latin, ‘Silentium Est Aureum’ which means ‘silence is golden.’ The gun also has 13 hashmarks & is accompanied by a rosary which also has interlocked triangles hanging from it, perhaps hinting at the trinity. She stands on a pedestal titled AMERICA, which also includes a skull with the Roman numeral for 14 & a crossed set of old keys. While I love unpacking the elements in art, I usually stop short of making too many assumptions. That said, the interweaving of the stars on the cloak, the gun, and the various odes to Christianity seem to be a strong commentary on the American achilles heal — the way patriotism, violence, and religion come together to subjugate. Art FTW. #streetart #nycart #wheatpasteart #religiousart #americanart #nycstreetart #soho #sohonyc
