The Baayfalls is a 2017 painting by Jordan Casteel.[1] The 1,400-square-foot mural is currently on display along Manhattan's High Line,[2] in the U.S. state of New York, from December 2019 to December 2020.[3][4] The painting depicts two street vendors (one male and one female); the woman's T-shirt reads, "I am not interested in competing with anyone. I hope we all make it."[5][6]
