Street Art East London

Street art by various artists covers the closed down Lord Napier pub in Hackney Wick, East London, United Kingdom. Street art in the East End of London is an ever changing visual enigma, as the artworks constantly change, as councils clean some walls or new works go up in place of others. While some consider this vandalism or graffiti, these artworks are very popular among local people and visitors alike, as a sense of poignancy remains in the work, many of which have subtle messages.
