Bush House Graffiti
Some rather wonderful graffiti appeared in Aldwych on Tuesday.
It appeared on a building site which is adjacent to BBC Bush House in London. The site was last occupied by Citi Bank but is now deserted – money to complete the Silken Hotel dried up about 8 months ago and nothing has moved since.
I took these photos as two workmen were busy painting over the images on Thursday. Unfortunately they’d already removed the poster which proclaimed “This is not graffiti”.
It upsets me that the firm behind the Silken Hotel can’t find the money to finish their hotel (and therefore rid Aldwych of its ugly scaffold and temporary pedestrian routes which flood in the rain) but can finance a couple of men to pounce upon this artwork within 48 hours.
Do you know which artist is responsible?
