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?”

Conceived in 2014, the RAW Project has been bringing color, intrigue and inspiration to schools in Miami and beyond at a time when American schools continue to see their art programs defunded. During the week of Art Basel, a group of outstanding local, national and global artists transformed magnet school South Miami K-8 Center into an open-air museum. The image pictured above was painted by Berlin-based Peruvian artist Danny Figueroa aka WESR.  Several more images — all captured by travel and street photographer Karin du Maire aka Street Art Nomad — follow:

Home to some of Miami’s most intriguing artists — with an increasing presence of global ones — Little Haiti is an oasis of style and expressiveness. Pictured above is a mural painted collaboratively by 2Alas and Case Maclaim. What follows are several more I captured on my recent trip to Miami.
