Drew

Painting the City

Ahead of the 2022 World Cup, Adidas commissioned a series of murals honouring players from the US Men’s National Team.


In Queens, New York, artist Drew painted a tribute to Gio Reyna on a large wall along Northern Boulevard.


I spent the day documenting the process: sketch lines becoming colour, ladders shifting across the wall, and a portrait slowly appearing above the street.


Public art unfolding in real time.
