Increasingly, experimental street artists are being drawn to places such as Shoreditch where, through their art display at street level, they can gain exposure. I found this doorway illustration by chance in Shoreditch High Street under one of the bridges. Tucked away in a small cul-de-sac it almost feels that it is hanging in its own bespoke gallery.
As Shoreditch becomes ever-more the primary magnet for street and graffiti artists in East London, the creative bar gets ever higher. Whitby Street is one such sought-after location. In the heart of Shoreditch, Whitby Street buildings offer wonderfully expansive blank canvas walls on which artists can create and display their work. Potential shots for the photographer lie around every street corner.
