Currently on view at the corner of Underhill Avenue and Saint Johns Place is “What’s Your Sign?” — a captivating series of murals celebrating our Zodiac signs. The image featured above, a whimsical mix of all of our astrological signs, was fashioned by Rio de Janeiro-born, Brooklyn-based artist Barbtropolis.  A small selection of additional Zodiac murals — painted under the curatorial direction of Jeff Beler — follow:

Queens-based muralist OG Millie does Sagittarius 

NYC-based artist and arts educator Marissa Molina does Taurus

Ithica-based multimedia artist Clove and Bogota, Colombia-native Calicho Arevalo do Libra

Miami-based Nicaraguan artist Luis Valle aka El Chan Guri does Aires

Dumbo-based Craig Anthony Miller and veteran writer BC NBA do Leo

Brooklyn-based, Beijing-born muralist, illustrator and educator Peach Tao aka peacheeblue does Pisces

Note: Keep posted to the Street Art NYC Instagram and Threads for more images from “What’s Your Sign?”

Located at 701 Washington Avenue and Clark Place in Prospect Heights, Brooklyn, Washington Walls continues to host a wondrously diverse array of murals. We recently visited its current iteration, strikingly curated by community resident and leader Jeff Beler. The ingeniously fashioned mural/installation featured above is the work of Brooklyn-based Humble, who had earlier been immersed in the Richmond, Virgina art scene. What follows are several more images of murals that we captured last week:
