Iranian street art duo Icy and Sotexhibited canvases at Art Basel Miami Beach in December, but now the stencil kings are taking on the polar vortex in New York with fiery indoor pieces. The artists decorated an abandoned building in the city with inflammatory works of riot imagery. 

Playing with signs from pop culture, Icy and Sot depicted Molotov cocktails in Coke bottles with real flames for a work called Enjoy Coca-Cola. Another piece features a police van perched atop a fire truck and spraying blue paint across the wall. The stencils bring the chaos of revolutionary streets inside a decaying space.
