street art Discover street art in Shoreditch

A couple of days ago I visited Shoreditch in search of a flat. Unfortunately I didn’t find a flat but instead found a wide range of stunning street art. Even though I was supposed to be somewhere else I kept walking along the streets just to be able to see more of the artwork that’s been created on walls, doors, bridges, basically everywhere you could imagine. Every corner is filled with art, with some of it actually created by famous street artists like Banksy, Obey and Shepard Fairey. Walking around I was amazed how a whole city district can be covered in graffiti the way Shoreditch is. It really gives it a distinctive look and certain atmosphere.

I don’t know if you like street art but if you do, you really should check out the area around Shoreditch and even Brick Lane. It’s a street art experience extraordinaire! Of course if you don’t live in the UK, you can always check out the video below, or browse the Find It map to check out some of the pieces of art lying around East London, such as this Eine’s piece of art near Cargo!
