I'm a little bit late posting up these photographs of street art by Ador & Semor, a pair of street artists from France who started painting their murals in 2012, but as I was writing my post, I discovered that (thanks to Facebook) one of the artists is back in London again and painting walls. Ador was back in London a week and a half ago and painted the wall at the corner of Pedley Street and Brick Lane with a blue-haired archer character and a giant carrot.
On the previous trip to London at the end of 2015, Ador and Semor contributed on a few murals around London. Ador's adds shadow and dimension to his work by shading and blending, and Semor's work is more detailed. In the image below, the subject is a boy blowing up a balloon in the shape of an elephant. The boy is the work of Ador, and the purple-pink elephant is the work of Semor.
The next piece was located around the corner and features an older man sitting in his chair with abstract art painted on the wall behind him.
The third piece features a person sawing down a tree with flowers and other creatures around as the tree is sawed into a stump. Perhaps this highlights the reconstruction that is taking place in the vicinity. This piece was being painted over when I was in the area on Saturday.
