A few days back saw Spanish born, but London based Graffiti Writer Kaes take to the Kinkao restaurant wall in Pedley Street to offer this wall which sees such a high turnover of mostly fantastic artworks its latest and his second reworking – with the last work painted by Kaes two months ago (covered here). We here at London Calling Blog very much enjoy seeing Kaes’ striking character portraits, which represent a fusion of character, colour and geometry, with the subject merging into and from the background, the shapes passing through the scene and character. These characters are often depicted in an expression of gasping shock, almost as if as opposed to being the spectacle, the painting is reacting to your presence. On this occasion Kaes has continued with the theme of his last work and placed up a piece depicting a surreal and almost disturbing scene in which the perils or escapism through social media destroy the soul and mind of the individual, certainly an engaging and thoughtful piece.

I LOVE this so much! Stunning work as always from Kaes!
