After sending out a truck filled with mewling stuffed animals all around the city the last couple days, Banksy has opted to go with something less mobile and a bit more concrete for his latest piece. The newest work, which he calls a "Concrete confessional," is located somewhere in Manhattan. You can see a closer photo of it below.
If you find the piece, drop us a line at [email protected]. We'll update when we find out any new information about it. And do let us know if any industrious Manhattan residents decide to set up camp and charge people to gaze upon Banksy's latest offering.
Update: The piece is on East 7th Street and Cooper Square.
