I had a field day in Brick Lane last week, stunned by the many beautiful works of art to be found on every corner. They truly add so much to the environment, a splash of colour and clever shapes that evoke so many thoughts and convey interesting concepts. What I particularly like about street art is that it's not confined to the conformity of an art gallery space, instead free to transcend boundaries and cleverly use the physical environment as its fluid canvas. This quality alone makes it much more accessible to the general public, taking art outside its comfort zone so to speak. I quite like the style of the work pictured above, the expressions split but the emotions working together.
