When Nature Takes Over - Original Spray Paint on Subway Maps

“When Nature Takes Over” is an original mixed-media spray paint artwork created on authentic subway maps, painted twice, hand-cut, and reassembled into a vibrant, glitch-style collage. Conceptualized during the COVID lockdowns—when the world stopped and nature began to heal—this piece imagines what would happen if we stepped back long enough for the natural world to reclaim the spaces we take for granted. The interior of a subway car transforms into a lush explosion of plants, flowers, and butterflies breaking through steel, concrete, and fluorescent light. Every layer symbolizes rebirth, resilience, and the unstoppable force of nature pushing its way back into the modern world. This artwork blends bold color, urban energy, and botanical beauty, creating a powerful statement piece for collectors who appreciate contemporary street art, environmental themes, and complex mixed-media techniques.
