You all know by now how much I love Graffiti art which is why I could not pass on these amazing places in Miami over the winter holidays.

Some of the Graffiti Artists on those murals

The aphorism “a rising tide raises all ships” stands as a symbol of our times. We are living amidst a rising tide of anti-racism, of feminism and compassion, of BLM and environmental awareness. The juxtaposition of a rising tide, of course, is an environmental disaster and means devastation to Miami and elsewhere in the world.
The image: a spray paint collage portrays two giant goddesses. Deep sea creatures float around them. They hold us humans in their hands and watch as our choices and actions reveal what our future world will look like

Cesar de Almeida, born in 1974 in the city of São Paulo, is married to Verônica Soares, father of Luana, Maria Clara and Leonardo. .
Dicesarlove is a self-taught artist and began his career before the age of 18, when he created realistic drawings of people in downtown São Paulo. He started working as a waiter in a bar, where the owner learned of his aptitude for art and decided to invite him to draw a drawing of Charlie Chaplin on the interior wall of the establishment.
@TheBushwickCollective: http://thebushwickcollective.com
Seminal Brooklyn street art organization The Bushwick Collective even hopped on Mana’s lineup, adding a touch of their own curation, including one particularly arresting wall by Osiris Rain. His vividly beautiful, high contrast portrait of a goddess jumps off the wall and reaches up a gorgeous stairway built into the facade.
French artist Fuzi is held today as a living legend by the international illegal graffiti community. Yet, back in the mid-1990s, when he pioneered a form of graffiti that became known as Ignorant Style, he was grossly misunderstood, even ridiculed as being unable to paint. A member of the notorious UV / TPK graffiti crews, he was already one of the most prolific vandals operating on the Paris train lines when, inspired by the raw vibrancy of early-1970s New York graffiti (with something of the creative spontaneity of childhood and the anarchic freedom of art brut), he developed what was actually a deliberate and thoughtful approach to the art form that sought to play with its origins and roots.
@Saturno: https://www.saturnoart.com
Miguel Ángel Sánchez AKA SATURNO is an artist from a small town near Barcelona in Spain. A self-taught painter and illustrator, he’s become a recognized name in the European graffiti scene since he began in 1995, biting off a bigger piece of fame with each project
@AlecMonopoly: https://www.alecmonopoly.com
“Alec Monopoly” is the alias of an unidentified graffiti artist, originally from New York City. The artist has worked in the urban environments of New York, Miami, Los Angeles, Europe and throughout Asia using varied materials (including stencils, spray paint, epoxies, varnishes and newspapers) to subversively depict various iconic pop culture characters. Alec Monopoly cites his artistic origins as learning from his mother, an artist, eventually abandoning traditionally academically driven art classes to pursue an individual methodology.

Raquel Riley Thomas Mural in Wynwood Miami. The Client wanted a surrealist painting of beauty pageant owner, veteran and supermodel Raquel Riley Thomas. Raquel is painted with a close friend Randi Dorsey. This mural took approximately 3 weeks to complete and a 45’ aerial lift was used to complete the mural. The mural has elements of natural Florida wildlife including the Florida panther, beautiful skies and tropical palms over a faux canvas effect on a concrete wall.
