Crossing Thundercut's mind

 Thundercut Walker

Pedestrian crossing signals in New York are being highlighted by Thundercut(1974). 


Thundercut draws attention to these traffic lights by giving the figures detailed outfits and suitable accessories made of hand-cut adhesive vinyl.
The colorful cut out pieces show tiny holes for the dots of light, adding an urban style and a specific personality to the omnipresent walk symbols.


Linked to the specific area the pieces include a posh shopping girl in Soho, a baseball player at the Yankee Stadium, a hip hop man, a Rasta man, ...


A playful, simple idea as this showcases the power of street art to enliven the city.
