Street Art Round-Up to July 2015

| No Comments | No TrackBacks

I've compiled a lot of photographs of street art over the course of last year and the beginning of this year. I've included these in this post for a round up of various pieces of street art that appeared in east London over the past several months. This weekend (July 11 and July 12) is the "Meeting of the Styles" street art event, so some of the walls around east London will be painted over.

Edwin is a popular street artist based in London. He often puts up hand-drawn stickers around London and also paints some walls with various cartoon-style illustrations.

Last autumn, he painted a high-profile wall on Hanbury Street with airmail stickers.

Eelus was the previous occupant of the space that Edwin took over on Hanbury Street, and this piece (you can see it in my post here) was his first piece for awhile after the artist lost his daughter. The piece below appeared in the autumn.

Jim Vision is another artist who is always adding his artwork to London's streets. The image below appeared off of Curtain Road last autumn. I originally thought that it was a piece by David Walker.

David Walker's piece was painted over in 2013, and the artist finally visited London again to recover his space on Rivington Street last summer.

I liked this colourful face by Jaycaes.

At the end of last year and beginning of this year, the large Village Underground mural was painted by Ian Stevenson and Russell Brand. This piece features a Mickey Mouse character with the words "the revolution is now".

Himbad is another London-based artist that has been busy in the past year. The piece below appeared at the start of this year.

This was then replaced by a baby's face from artist Empty Belly, an artist who seems to be well-traveled and who has painted in Berlin and Lisbon.

DESX was another artist who was busy last spring and summer, and I saw a lot of these characters (the one being chased by the gigantic wasp) painted around.

Lister was one of the first artists I covered in my blog as he had just visited London and left a few pieces around. He must have returned to London at the end of last year because I discovered this piece off Curtain Road. You can read my original entry about the artist and see more of his work here.

Nemi Uhu is another artist who pastes up tiles around London, and an example of one is pictured below.

I loved this piece. It reads "always and forever" if you look at it correctly.
