#365ArtDrop18 – 54/365, a leaf left hanging in Shoreditch, East London. April 2018

More #365ArtDrop18 pieces, and yes that hashtag is part of it, the 54th and 55th parts of the year long piece of work were left hanging out on the street last night  Two fresh leaves, two star shaped leaves left hanging (and if they both rock three times that will add up to six), two recent paintings, two pieces painted on some unwanted recycled wood picked up from the Hackney street last month, the latest of 365 artdrop pieces planned for 2018.  365 paintings on recycled material, left hanging back out on the street, these two left hanging amongst the colour of Shoreditch, East London. Two paintings left there waiting for someone to take should they wish to do so.

There’s something satisfying about just hanging a piece of art on the street and then just walking away, especially when that piece is painted on something that had been thrown away. I don’t know if any of these pieces end up in landfill after they’ve been hung, but the pieces of wood and such were heading that way anyway…. I expect a few more might find their way onto the street over the weekend….

Oh and how good is that Mash piece, one of the best pieces of proper graff we’ve seen in ages. The nail I hung the piece on was already there, nothing was mashed, the pieces are always respectfully carefully hung.
