I’m around and about Brick Lane for most of this weekend so I thought I’d share with you some of the new pieces of graffiti art and installations that I’ve spotted. Two spots in particular – one in an abandoned yard behind one of the stretches of Bangladeshi restaurants, and the Truman yard half way […]
The Most Outrageous Tribute to Will & Kate?
