We at SNTB know the question that is on everyone’s lips but are too afraid to ask – Was it a real Banksy? Graffiti is not everyones cup of tea, but none can dispute the impact Banksy has had on the art scene and even the whole world.
First there was a glimpse, a taster, a tease…
Then revealed in all it’s glory…
Sadly it has now gone, painted over or sold to a private collector? Either way it has gone. If it was a Banksy, SNTB would like to invite him to revisit South Norwood and gift us (again?) with one of his creations. If this creation wasn’t a Banksy, perhaps we have our own budding Banksy, Blec the Rat or the late King Robbo, after all there are many people with hidden talents in our community.
The wonderful thing about South Norwood is there is beauty and intrigue in the most unlikely places.
