A few days back we had the pleasure of witnessing Street Artist Nerone transform a rather drab and large shipping container along an industrial section of Penge for our SprayExhibition20 Community Project. Marking spot number 63 painted in Penge over the last 18 months, this was Nerone’s first visit to the area and also saw the areas Street Art spreading to new corners of town with what is one of the biggest paintings in town to date. Not being daunted the nature of the containers broken surface, in fact relishing the challenge as he hadn’t previously painted one, Nerone done an excellent job with his vibrant and retro colour-palette fueled floral driven scene coupled with a streak of neon bolting through, certainly adding a dose of warmth and beauty to this dull corner of SE20.
We would like to say thanks to Matthew of Odessa Print Services for allowing us to get Nerone to add something so beautiful to their property. We also would like to offer a big thanks to Nerone for coming down to add this striking addition to the area.
