You have probably noticed there is a lot of graffiti in and around Thornton Heath at the moment? Above shop fronts on the High Street and an empty shop on Brigstock Road (pictured) have been targeted but now trees are being tagged.
There will be five murals featured on the High Street and Brigstock Road as part of the regneration from a range of artists. These artists went through a competition process and were commissioned and paid. Also Brigstock House, a temporary home for refugees, will feature art work commissioned by The Rise Gallery featuring local artists.
There is definitely a place for graffiti but to enhance not detract?
Are you behind this graffiti? What is your inspiration? You clearly have something you want to say or is it the adrenalin rush you get from leaving your tag.
Either way please get in touch and share with us your thoughts. Happy to keep your anonymity.
