Street Art: Dscreet

| No Comments | No TrackBacks

Visitors to Shoreditch or Brick Lane will sooner or later walk past one of Dscreet's murals. Dscreet's artwork mainly features owls, and there are many of these dotted around on the shutters or on walls in this area of London.  

According to an interview, Dscreet preferred painting cartoon figures and used the owl image as it was quick for him to paint it and the owl had a meaning for him (1).

Recently, Dscreet painted doors of the Tramshed with a white owl and the lyrics to a Black Sabbath song.

Located just off Brick Lane, these symetrical owls and a skull (common in Dscreet's artwork) sit on top of the tag of the artist.
