Well, well, well, you don’t go to a spot for a while, and what happens when you do finally pay a visit? Of course, you find something new. This wall on the rear of the Bell Pub in Stokes Croft, used to host a rather fine piece by Sepr, but the whole thing has been replaced by this b boy scene painted by Krome, an artist I know nothing about.
A quick internet search tells me that Krome is a tattooist and graffiti artist from Bristol, however, he is not one I have come across before. Although there is a lot of ‘white space’ (blue) in the piece, the key elements of a graffiti artist, a sound system, a break-dancer, some writing and a DJ at his deck, do enough to keep the piece interesting. It will be fascinating to see whether we see more from Krome, or whether this large piece was a one-off. Time will tell I guess.
