No Ball Games

You can find this piece on Tottenham Green road in London. The message here is pretty clear – children have lost the privilege of playing on the streets.

Big Brother Is Watching

This piece was found near West End, London, and brings to light the familiar theme of universal surveillance. Is this the best way forward, and are we safe under this format?



Pulp Fiction Bananas

This is Banksy’s take on the popular film ‘Pulp Fiction’. This piece was originally created near old street tube station in London, but the government ordered the piece to be taken down pretty quickly.



Let Them Eat Crack

Make Peace
