Geometric Mural at the Bowery Wall by Maya Hayuk
Artist Maya Hayuk recently completed this striking, brightly-colored mural on the Bowery Wall in Manhattan. Though the mural’s complex geometric composition might indicate otherwise, Hayuk did not design it in advance, instead creating it largely spontaneously on site
From a shoot I did for the Bowery Diner.. you can see more photos in the gallery on their website here
If you're in the city check out their burger or smoked meat sandwich and if you walk into the restaurant there's a photo I took of their eggs/oyster/toast/coffee hanging on the wall.
Keith Haring made the wall famous by painting a mural here as a gift to the community in the late 1970's. For decades this slab has been bombed by illegal graffiti and various commercial ads.
Since 2008, the wall has presented sanctioned graffiti and changes with the seasons. In the past six years, a long list of renowned artists have created murals on the wall. Now it is an outdoor art galley, graffiti by invitation. The latest is by COPE2.

You don't know that you've been born
Can't see the calm until the storm
Can't tell your right side from your wrong
Can't see the wave you're riding on
