Story: Well the mural legends, Matt Hooker and Matt Moore are at it again. You really just do not know where they will pop up next but Plaza Midwood is always a good guess. Some of their most iconic work is in this neighborhood. All the credit to these two mural artists on the scene in Charlotte for forging the way with their early work in 2016 – 2017. You can find their work in uptown, South End, NoDa, Elizabeth, and Plaza-Midwood on all of our artwalks.
Key Formal Elements:
