I’ve always loved the style of street art collective The London Police (and am even more fond of the fact that they trump the real London Police Force in Google searches). It’s bold, fun and intrinsically linked to the Hip Hop culture we all know and love through thick black lines and shell toe sneakers. [...]
Wading through the highest beard to face ratio this side of a lumberjack convention, it’s easy to think of Shoreditch as simply that place where people with fashion sense I will most likely never understand congregate to trade stories of managing to stop their bikes without brakes back to back drinking fresh trade coffee. However, [...]
Pop surrealist David Shillinglaw came up painting walls in a playful, illustrative style full of colour, words and interaction and has since had a successful gallery career over the past decade. His most recent show, My Idea of Fun is currently at Stolenspace gallery in the Truman Breweries just off East London’s Brick Lane and [...]
Ink drippin, liqour sippin, visual piffin, you know what time it is….
A clear out last week revealed a couple of mysteriously unmarked, undeveloped dusty films hiding away at the back of a draw so, naturally curious, I quickly got them developed to find shots from one of the most crucial days of summer on a Londoner’s calendar; Notting Hill Carnival.

Scouring classic tunes from the likes of Wu Tang, Big L, Mos Def and M.O.P, he compiled quotes that refer to specific locations in New York and, after creating realistic looking street [...]
Martha Cooper, the celebrated graffiti photographer and journalist who co-created the seminal 80s book Subway art alongside Henry Chalfant, turned 70 on Saturday and recieved a heart warming gift from some of New Yorks finest street artists. How & Nosm, who’s mural has lived on the infamous Houston Street wall since last November, buffed their [...]
It’s that time of the month again. The sun bounces off chrome on the wall and the worlds align to produce some of the illest visuals the internet has ever seen. Scroll down and let February burn those retinas.
French street artist Tilt recently visited Atlanta, the sister city of his hometown Tolouse, after being invited to participate in the Elevate Atlanta Art Festival. Painting a massive mural of the American flag comprised of the names of the local residents that passed him, it’s a really nice project that obviously touched those in the [...]
