crown heights mural
Street art in Crown Heights is big--it's everywhere, it's overtly opinionated, it's impossible to ignore. This is (half of) one of my favorite murals. The multi-ethnic Brooklyn bridge, the airplane banner that reads: THE PEACE ZONE FRONTIER // CROWN HEIGHTS // One Love Supreme. I wrote about this mural for a class after seeing only this portion of it (the bottom half was covered by a community garden). It seemed to communicate a hopefulness, by way of movement within multi-ethnic unity, from the globe to the neighborhood.
