Cherie invites people on the street to walk across her pre-painted canvases that capture the vibe of each borough. They leave footprints or a personal mark. She brings the canvas back to her studio, traces the marks, and completes the mural while reflecting on their energy and stories.

“My work is about transforming raw street energy into art. The people inspire the movement, the color, the emotion, and my love for this city and its five boroughs drives every stroke. I turn it into art because the energy of the people is art in itself.”
