Caption

Artist Naomi Likayi poses before her commissioned mural at the boarded Portland World Trade Center, part of the Portland Street Art Alliance's urban revitalization project.

Description

Artist Naomi Likayi stands in contemplative profile against her vibrant mural at Portland's boarded World Trade Center, her natural locs framing her upward gaze. The kaleidoscopic backdrop features flowing abstract forms in electric blues, purples, and mint greens with playful white hand motifs. Golden hoop earrings catch the light as she wears a geometric plaid coat, creating an intimate portrait that bridges the artist with her transformative public art commissioned by the Portland Street Art Alliance.
