Over Under does some really complex characters, but sometimes simple is so striking, like these rays floating around NYC.
Over Under has a show with Cahil Muraghu open at 17 Frost Gallery until Oct 31.

There's something so striking about a 'tag' in nature, done with natural materials.
Overunder:
"I started writing 'Nevada' back when I lived in Reno and shortened it to Nevs when I got to NY. Shortly after I tried to drop the traditional name graffiti and focus solely on a simple one-liner paper bird. Since moving back to the west coast I've been experimenting with all sorts of new materials and moving away from the paper bird icon.
"A few weeks ago I left the house with a hammer to see how that would affect my work. I ended up in some place called Pelican Point where there is a ton of collapsed and discarded wood. I took out my hammer, salvaged some nails, and repurposed the wood to spell NEVS."
