“This new piece on the streets of NYC is an extension of some of the past work I have done connecting various concepts of catastrophe. I have found the imagery depicting the horrors of the plague especially pertinent to the state of our environment. Humanity has weathered and lived through various crises that have shaken our imagination and dramatically changed the way we organize our lives moving forward” Gaia

Nick Walker. This is the remainder of an old piece from 2008. In the original the figure is remote controlling a very tall Giraffe to who is writing “Vandal” in red spray paint. The building got a fresh coat of paint recently but they decided to save him. We like that. (photo © Jaime Rojo)
