When I first started out noticing street art in Bristol, and subsequently writing about it, The Carriageworks was my ‘go to’ spot to find some really classy work. Alas, the gentrification of Stokes Croft, eliminated half of the spot, and what remains is rarely painted. How pleasing it was to see this beauty from Hemper, and a piece adjacent to it by Kid Krishna (posted).
It took me a couple of attempts to photograph this piece, because the first time I went there was a van partially covering up the writing, but I photographed it nonetheless just to make sure I had it in the can. These pictures are a much cleaner version and really highlight the magnificent of this extraordinary graffiti writing from Hemper, who has been on a roll this spring (a spring roll, if you like🙂). There is so much colour, beautifully blended, and a perfectly painted contrasting blue and black drop shadow. Another masterpiece of graffiti writing from Hemper.
