Didn't say it was a competition.

Could you post a picture for those of us stuck indoors, please!!!

I love the art next to barrys newsagent. Real talent. X

Graffiti yes. Art no.

[KidKruger]

Interesting correction.

What is the difference pls Con (no Wiki-ing now!) ?

There was some good graffiti recently on a wall at the beginning of Frogley Road, beside what used to be "Truly Scrumptious". It said "F*** Corona Virus" in yellow and green colours. Unfortunately it was painted over rather quickly.

There has been increase in graffiti on the lane recently and apart from p'ing me off, it always reminds me of the 'broken window hypothesis'. I've mentioned this a few times previously; nip this behavior in the bud and we'll all benefit, allow it to go unchallenged and we're offering ourselves up on a plate.

Graffiti is a bugbear of mine and I have reported it on Southwark council's website. Anyone have any experience of doing this?

[goldilocks]

In my experience, if it?s offensive it?s removed more quickly. Agree though that reporting is right move even if response time is understandably slower right now.

Sadly 'Dulwich Fight Club' just behind the EDT has been graffitied recently, hope it's not going to be too arduous to remove.

Hate tags.

This isn't political point scoring

I don't like tags - I don't mind something that is clever or attempts to be.

Their energy would be better spent learning how to create art like the one they just vandalised.

What is the purpose of walking around with a bottle of spray paint & tagging walls with jibberish?

[alice]

Maybe all marks have meaning. Some you won?t understand.

true - but that won't endear me

I'd paint everything in bright colours if I could :)

There?s a lovely reinterpretation of a flower still life from Dulwich Picture Gallery that?s on the corner of Bawdale Rd and Fellbrigg Road. Jazzes up the place, IMHO.

[murphioso]

The Phlegm mural on the corner of Barry Road and Goodrich Road has been partially sprayed over - does anyone know someone who?s been able to get these cleaned without damaging the original underneath...?
