Hackney Wick mural

  • Cat Mouse

I have been rather active in Hackney Wick underground scene, having heard many stories, taking part in different actions and events, attempting to shape the area through my art. I have come to understand ethics and values of the scene that has existed there in the last year, as well as it’s challenges. This informed approach to my work. There are many interpersonal references that in my work that can only be understood by the locals, however the mural can be understood by the wider public. This work is an ever shifting organism, and I painted it over many times. It has become a canvas where I challenge myself, and also reflect on finite nature of my creations and fluidity of its environment.
