For our next post we are taking a look at a recent pair of additions to Anerley by street artist Enigm placed up for our SprayExhibition20 community street art project around Penge and Anerley. These striking pieces mark the first time Enigm has painted around our corner of South-East London since his arrival in London during the summer and he has certainly left his mark in style about SE20.

Enigm is proving to be one of the most active street artists currently on London’s scene, as well as making for one of the most exciting artists to land in our city for some time. Taking a rich illustrative style heavily influenced by a cross-hatching approach Enigm’s work has a very historically old-fashioned quality, the technique and colour-scheme brings to mind drawings from the Victorian era, which add so much to the surreal otherworldly scenes this artists concocts.

We would like to offer a big thank you to each of the space owner for allowing us to find an artist to again transform their properties. As well as a massive thank you to Enigm for coming by to support this initiative and for leaving such a fantastic pair of artworks for us to enjoy in the process. These stunning works can be found in Anerley and was put up with support from ourselves London Calling Blog.
