To date the project has seen some 90 works put up […]Read Post ›

The group show brings together a broad range of styles, with the […]Read Post ›
Last week in London, Street Artist Zina laid out her freshest work in W10, Shepherds Bush way, somewhat off of the beaten track for locating Street Art and adopted a fresh twist on her distinctive trademark blue-scale portraits.
