I was excited to find out that Matamuros "a small collective of mural minded individuals concerned with the retaking and remaking of public space" hit Greenwood with a show at the Naked City Brewery for the February monthly artwalk. Matamuros is made up of Seattle urban mural artists, Jill Rothenberger, Zachary Bohnekamp and Kevin “Sensei 23 projux” Sullivan. I didn't have the chance to go see their work at the artwalk due to us having our own show at the time. But later that weekend had the chance to go have a brew and check out their work. If you haven't had the chance to see their work, I would definitely recommend coming out to Greenwood for a look.
I did a little googling and was further happy to see that there is a mural in progress in the yet to open Pillager's Pub!! This photo is a work in progress and was found on their flickr site: http://www.flickr.com/people/matamuros13/
I hope this is a sign to come of Greenwood evolving into an urban art mecca. Okay that may be a little overzealous, but I can dream!
