An entire mural in a day? Well let's say more like two weeks, according to Laura Campos. She and fellow artist and collaborator, Carlo Quispe, spent almost two years trying to get permission to paint their visionary tripped-out space alien demonic world on this East 2nd Street (Ave C) wall. Apparently this structure had been home to druggies and shooting deaths in the past and has been locked up and vacant for years-- but with persistence and sensitive negotiating with the neighbors, the two of them managed to finish the work this past weekend.
East Second Street says thanks a million-- it's wonderful having this beautiful work to pass by and admire every day.
