Right after Hurricane Sandy departed New York City, graffiti artists (and twin brothers!) How and Nosm began work on their Houston Street mural (you know the one). The mural shows rising water, lightbulbs, and electrical cords... could those be nods to the city that just got slammed by Hurricane Sandy? Well, they did just release a print called Storm Predictions.
