As mentioned over the past few weeks, Mexican street artists have taken over London. I've already covered work by Stinkfish, Acaro and Mazatl and collaborations with Mazatl and Fusca. This post covers another Mexican street artist, Said Dokins. Said has been in London for a few weeks now, and I've noticed his work around the city in several places. His work is comprised of beautiful typography with colour to create works of art. The newest mural is on Hanbury Street and is titled 'Alive'.
The same wall has changed frequently recently, and Ampparito was another artist to have his work painted up with an image of bait. The artist is from Spain, and his work only lasted a few days before it was painted over with the work below.
Street artist Oliver Switch also painted on the wall a portrait of musician Raury. I normally do not post advertising on this blog, but I thought that this piece was really stunning. This was replaced by Said Dokins' piece.
The work on this wall has not lasted long this year, so be quick to visit.
