Rothko Graffiti Screens

MD

Unintentional art created when business owners and city workers try to paint over graffiti. The combination of painted fields of color, sky, and ground create images reminiscent of Mark Rothko’s signature style paintings.

Horizontal bands of white, turquoise, cream, and gray stretch across a painted cinder block wall. Soft tree shadows drift across the surface, introducing movement and atmosphere while emphasizing the graphic qualities of color fields and architectural geometry.
