When it comes to street art, there's no canvas too big, which was the motivation behind MADSTEEZ's new mural, which adorns a basketball court in Harlem.
Art and sports intersect at this new sporting location, which now features a brightly hued court that breaths new life into the area. The mural features a color palette of green, purple and blue, offering a gorgeous sight for spectators and players alike. The artist behind this piece is known for large-scale work, making him the perfect person to design the new and energetic court.
Featured at Harlem's St. Nicholas Park, this campaign's over-arching goal is to better connect aspiring athletes with the community, in order to inspire and encourage young people to pursue their dreams.
