There still seems to be quite a bit of buzz about East London and the above piece definitely caught our attention. Spotted in Shoreditch, across from the Griffin (not the house of ill repute), it’s an interesting update on Pearly Kings and Queens.
We also liked the stencil at the bottom poking a bit of fun at Banksy and the monetization of street art.

Just giving credit where it’s due…this is actually by Pure Evil, not Banksy.

Yup, Pure Evil’s Charley Edwards! He’s also the author of ‘F*CK ART LETS DANCE’. You can see his work over at Urban Angel’s Art Lounge.
