Dirty Bandits, Welling Court Mural Project, 11-98 Welling Court, Queens, NY

Artist statement: I wanted to touch on the idea of breaking through, breaking out, getting free of something. This design was also inspired by the book cover for @sam_schutz’s memoir, I Don’t Want to Be Crazy, designed by @maevenn with lots of torn paper which beautifully captured the tangibility of anxiety.
