Welcome to BSA Images of the Week. You look amazing in that shirt!

We were running up that hill this week to see the designer currently on view at the Brooklyn Museum, Iris van Herpen, in the exhibition Iris van Herpen: Sculpting the Senses. Her work often looks less like traditional couture and more like living systems captured in motion — borrowing from coral formations, jellyfish, skeletons, water currents, insect wings, cellular structures, and fractal geometry. With the breezes blowing the newly arrived green leaves on the trees in front of the museum, we left feeling that the systems of nature merged with art, and that the city was in natural motion on the street.

Brooklyn-born artist Keisha Scarville has transformed the exterior street-facing walls of the Brooklyn Museum with large-scale photographic works that layer fabric, portraiture, memory, and fragmented identity into immersive public images. Like Iris van Herpen’s couture inside the museum, Scarville’s visual language draws from organic structures, repetition, translucency, and flowing forms that dissolve boundaries between materials and atmosphere. Both artists build intricate systems inspired by natural growth patterns and transformation, creating works that feel simultaneously intimate, sculptural, and almost biologically alive.

A few blocks away, the community wall project called Washington Walls is newly refreshed for the season, and many artists are again in touch with nature, or their inner nature anyway.

Here is our survey of the streets, this week featuring Aaron Metzger, Barbtropolis, Ben Keller, Calicho Art, Furmero, Homesick, Jason Naylor, Kams S Art, Keisha Scarville, Lady DJay, Le Crue, Luch, Minhofofa, Phetus, Praxis, Question Marks, Sarkism, Savior El Mundo, and Slut Puppy.
