Tag: Squire

Squire is another artist who has had a good 2025. I know little of him, and I expect he might prefer to keep it that way. These days he tends to collaborate with another artist, but I don’t know who it is and can’t read the letters, so to date I haven’t posted any.

This is a decent chrome piece with a thin white and thick red border, set on a yellow backdrop. These are good, strong colours which help to draw the eye. Looking forward to more from the graffiti writer in 2026.

Living in Bristol is, for so many reasons, a privilege and a joy, especially if you like a dusting of cosmopolitan urban heritage and culture. There are many things to be proud of and other things, such as the trade in slaves, tobacco and alcohol, that need to be understood and processed. It is a city that has a sense of excitement and a buzz about it, and I am sure that the street/graffiti art culture adds to that sensation.

We have a lot of visiting graffiti writers and artists that come to paint here, and every time I go out taking photographs, I find work by artists I have never encountered or noticed before. This writing by Squire, isn’t a style I recognise, but that doesn’t necessarily mean they are a visitor, just that I haven’t seen their stuff before. I like the letter shapes and the simple but effective black fill and purple pattern, set on a chrome background. A nice piece of writing.
