The Grandscale Mural Project returned to East Harlem this summer bringing dozens of alluring new murals to East 125th Street. Featuring a huge range of themes and styles, the project showcases works by both established and emerging artists. The intriguing image pictured above, A Walk to Freedom, was painted by NYC-based Baltimore native Mark West as a visual ode to those slaves who risked their lives or died in their struggle to attain freedom. Several more images of newly surfaced walls follow:
Harlem-based Marthalicia Marthalicia

Keep posted to our Instagram page, as there are many more murals from the Grandscale Mural Project waiting to be captured!

Love your work on 125 And Park. I’m trying to jumpstart a business and I have a logo and concept. Looking to recreate a character for my logo and build from there. I would like to discuss further. I left my contact information. Looking forward to discussing my concept.
Nival.
