After posting the mural project between Os Gemeos & Futura, we thought it wouldn’t be right to be in NYC and not stop by for an onsite AM look behind this project. The twins (Octavio & Gustavo) took an early crack at the legal mural space which is actually a Chelsea public school (P.S. 11) and is made possible by support from Nike, Montana Colors, and Allen Benedikt of 12oz Prophet & AKANYC.
The ginormous figure measures over seven stories tall and from what you see, the pants sports more than a few colorful “flags”. Working non-stop and still awaiting Futura to take his turn, this instant classic still has a few more layers of craziness to go. In the coming days look to us for continuing coverage. Until then check out all the details after the jump.
- To be continued…
- The twins enlisted two autobots for assistance with the 80ft mural
- Allen Benedikt was the eyes on the ground
- A friend from Sao Paulo who helped managed the walkie talkie action
