A couple of weekends back saw the one of the worlds most famous global Graffiti & Street Art festival finally return to London for its 10th anniversary in the UK with a fantastic event comprised of painting, music and all round fun by the many people in attendance. The very nature of the event is defined in the name – Meeting of Styles – setting to showcase writers and artists from all over the globe presenting a full range of Graffiti and Street Art styles.
The event was organised through the hard work of London’s very own Jim Vision and Matilda of EndOfTheLine – without any sponsorship this year – and set up in and around the Nomadic Community Gardens for its third year here now, a location that over the two years since its conception has propelled itself to the position of one of the must see locations to witness Street Art in London. Additionally there were extra works placed up in the adjacent park & streets of Allen Gardens and Pedley Street,
Making our third visit to Meeting OF Styles we very much enjoyed this years event, which offered a superb and diverse range of Graffiti and Street Art, as well as live music in a variety of styles really offering something for everyone to enjoy. It was a delight to enjoy the workings of so many of London’s resident artists as well as be exposed to so many artists and writers that either rarely paint in London or even have never had the chance to previously, drawing in talent from all around the globe for this one great weekend. The atmosphere was fantastic with a real sense of energy permeating the entire weekend and leaving a superb body of works in its wake. It’s only fair to say well done to EndOfTheLine for organizing such a hit, to all the artists who participated.
The events feature wall buffed and showing the very first signs of a magnificent production.
