Directly off the Alabama Avenue stop on the J train is an open-air gallery featuring over a dozen wonderfully varied and alluring murals. Under the curatorial direction of Queens Art Collective, the East New York Walls attest to the diversity of urban art — as they range from graffiti to stencil art to portraiture. The sumptuously seductive image featured above was painted by Miami-based Peruvian-American artist Diana Contreras aka DidiRok. Several more images captured last week while visiting these walls follow:
