Hi Everyone,

I’m very pleased to announce that Andy at UnknownPhotographer.net has just published an article I wrote about my project Exit Through the Thrift Shop. I go into quite a bit more detail about the inspiration and nuts and bolts of the project, so if you’re interested, please check it out here.

Linda :-)

The Stencil: Flower Chucker by Banksy

This is probably the most well-known of Banksy’s stencils, and was created around 2003. It was spraypainted on a wall off Rivington Street in London, and was also made available for sale as a limited edition print that was screenprinted on paper. The stencil was reworked some years later and this was displayed in Andipa gallery in 2009. In addition to this, the image has also been reworked by Banksy into a more detailed painting, showing the full riot, not just the individual rioter. It also features on the front cover of Banksy’s book ‘Wall and Piece’.

In Banksy’s ‘Wall and Piece’ you can see more detailed images of how some of these stencils also included several kilometres of paint dribble, twisting and turning through the city, eventually leading to the stencil and the ‘line’ of coke.
