Sunday was not a day of rest for the Brazilian twins and Futura as they worked on one of their “kids”. Armed with hundreds of cans of paint and two big cherry pickers they set the stage to begin work on building a wall-sized mural over 50 feet tall. They say it will take about a week to do the piece, which features flags from all over the world at PS 11 in Chelsea.
Seems like you just saw them in San Diego, and before that in about 10 other countries right? That’s because you did. The twins never stop. We asked Octavio yesterday during a break while he was on the ground if they ever rest. Octavio responded, “Yes we don’t rest. We like to paint and that’s what we do”.
Stop by all week to see the progress and play some hoops while they labor. BSA will be documenting the mural’s progress as it continues to develop into it’s final shape.
