In May this year London received a visit from American street artist WRSMTH, who as whenever he is visiting London, embarked on a flurry of activity, hitting pieces up all over the place. When WRDSMTH has visited an area of London, for the coming days and weeks, you cannot move for seeing typewriters.  Unsurprisingly WRSMTH was by profession a writer, based in LA, prior to his change of career as a Street Artist. He is a published writer and works on TV scripts and writing for documentaries. So with this in mind it is no wonder that his contribution to Street Art is to utilize his talent for writing as a creative outlet. Inspired by the Street Art scene upon moving to LA and initially planning to work in the medium of stickers, WRDSMTH then opted for to create his trademark typewriter stencil and to make the script a piece of paper wheat-pasted above, which in turn is at the very heart of WRDSMTH’s works. Offering a range of statements from humorous witticisms to touching messages of hope, love and freedom, these works do just make you smile upon observing. The superb selection of works were placed up around Brick Lane and Shoreditch.
