6569. Wine Street

I took these pictures back in May this year, but even then, I think this enormous mural by Silent Hobo and Logoe had been around for quite a while. I say it is by these two artists, but I only recognise Silent Hobo’s work, but perhaps Logoe was helping out. The piece is painted on a wall which is opposite a street food market and would account for the foodie theme.

I have had to split the piece into two parts to showcase the vibrant scene. Silent Hobo’s is a real specialist in reflecting the mood and characters of youth culture in Bristol and has an obvious fondness for the city and its people. I find his pieces very touching.

The contemporary piece offers a wonderful insight into the youth of the city, into fast/street food culture, and makes some references to place, for example, the Clifton Suspension Bridge in the top left. This is a busy, bustling blockbuster by Silent Hobo’s and Logoe, pity about the tagging on the lower sections.
