Klonism

Founded and curated by Miki Mu and Frankie Velez, the BedStuy Walls Mural Festival has for the fouth consecutive year transformed Lexington Avenue between Stuyvesant and Lewis Streets and beyond into a dazzling open-air gallery, while actively engaging the local community. The brightly-hued mural featured above was painted by UK native Klonism and Queens-based Turtle Caps. Several more images of murals — painted by local, national and international artists — follow.
