WK Interact


The work of the artist WK Interact is some of the most easily recognizable of downtown New York City. The artist, whose studio/shop is on the Lower East Side (LES), creates large scale black-and-white murals, paste-ups and dimensional works that show people mixed with imagery of authority, violence, fast motion, technology and military hardware. Above is his "boxer" mural on Ludlow St. in the LES, around the corner from his base on Stanton St., which is open to the public.
