Next up in our look back at 2023 we are sharing a series of 24 works we have seen this year from one of London’s most prolifically active street artists, namely Fat Cap Sprays. Of the works below three are from around Brick Lane in East London and the other 21 are from Penge, Anerley and Crystal Palace in South-East London.
It’s always a pleasure to have this artist paint a spot for us around our corner of London and leave some fresh creations for ourselves and the local community to admire. Fat Cap Sprays has left a number of additions on a range of spots big and small. This includes him painting his biggest wall to date, with excellent effect at that, at the Penge Rooftop Gallery. All works have been depicted in the artist’s own distinct take on neon style illustration that bring these characters to life and has them really popping from the surface they adorn. It has also been very interesting to see how the artist’s output has continued to evolve since he emerged with a bang on the street art scene in 2020, with the most recent developments in his artistic output being a shift to incorporating more abstract dynamics in his compositions, as well as a focus on conveying a sense of motion from his subjects.
The works below in Penge, Anerley and Crystal Palace were placed up with support from ourselves London Calling Blog. We of course wish to say a a big thank you to each of the respective generous space owners, who kindly donated a spot and trusted us to work it. As well as a massive thank you to Fat Cap Sprays for visiting SE20 – and it surrounding towns – to support this initiative and for leaving such a brilliant series of artworks in the process.
