By now, you may have heard of Sean Yoro (Hula)? He paints haunting murals in places where humanity has turned against itself. He’s depicted people like Angelina Jolie, using his stand-up board to balance on the water as he decorates the cement above urban waterways. The Hawaiian has also done commissions of legends like Andy Irons, below.

But this may be his most audacious project yet: ‘Maka’u,’ like all his paintings, is done with temporary paint. This one depicts a woman holding onto a rope as though she’s being pulled over the falls. We’re not exactly sure where the man-made spillway is but his painting again adds a raw beauty to an already stark, man-made structure.
