Street art posts in Natural Adventures are dominated by Bristol artists, I know and understand the culture (a little) in the city and feel comfortable writing about the art I see. The same cannot be said for other places. I tend to hold back on writing too much about the work I see on my trips outside Bristol because there are other chroniclers who do it so much better with so much more knowledge. Most of the photographs I take in London never get posted, but the break in new art in Bristol imposed by lock down means that I can visit my London archives and share some nice art with you.

This is a gorgeous piece by Mr Cenz in Shorditch that I photographed in November 2018, and I have a feeling that it was still pretty fresh and clean and probably not that old. Everything you expect to see from a Mr Cenz piece is here and it is absolutely stunning. It would be great if he could pay us a visit in Bristol some time – we’d have to find him a good wall though.
That’s his spot in Fashion Strasse I think.

He did one on the Climbing Centre in Upfest 2015 if you remember and one in Gloucester in 2016

I missed the 2015 one, I was only just starting to notice street art then. I’ve not been to Gloucester to see any art … yet.

The Climbing Centre one stayed there for a long time so you would very likely have seen it during the 2016 and possibly 2017 Upfests. Yhey have built something on to that end of the building or rather filled in the space that was between it and the adjacent building so you can’t see it any more. I guess it was plastered over in the process https://urbanartalacarte.blogspot.com/2015/08/upfest-2015-street-art-by-mr-cenz.html

The Gloucester one was done on boards for an event in 2016 – long gone now. There was a fair bit of street art activity in Gloucester a 2014-17 but it has fizzled out to almost nothing now sadly. https://urbanartalacarte.blogspot.com/2016/08/street-art-by-mr-cenz-14.html

That’s a lovely piece. Shame about the decline in street art in Gloucester.

I took my shot of this piece in March 2018 and I took another in July last year so it may possibly still be there. https://urbanartalacarte.blogspot.com/2016/12/street-art-by-mr-cenz-25.html
