Fleur De Lis Street: Street Art Paint Jam

| No Comments | No TrackBacks

Although some people were opposed to painting street art on Fleur De Lis street due to the historical significance of the area and the buildings, the street has been in need of a bit of care for some time, and street art and grafitti here is nothing new. This little passageway is a shortcut through to Commercial Road and one that I used if it was not too dark. Of course, it has never been a pleasant experience walking down the street with the dirt, faeces, and needles scattered about as well as the strong smell of urine.

Earlier in the autumn, the street hosted a paint jam with around twenty artists including Oust, G-Wiz, Tizer, Itaewon, Core, Captain Kris, Eoin, Trafik, 2Rise, Faver, Creed, ThisOne and others. By the time I checked out the street art here, it was probably about a month later and a couple of the pieces have been replaced.

With street art walls disappearing from east London due to gentrification, I am glad to see that older walls are being made use of.
