Icy-and-sot-new-york-1

Iranian brothers Icy and Sot just finished this new mural based on a drawing titled “Let her be free” and painted in Welling Court Queens, NY.
Icy and Sot started their professional career in 2008 in a country where being caught for doing graffiti can result in an accusation of “Satanism”. They began putting up small stenciled works on the streets of Tabriz and posting the images on the Internet which became an important part of the work since their art wouldn’t last for more than a few days before being erased.
