I can't remember the name of the artist, BUT... I happened to drive past a gallery where he had an exhibition on recently. Meant to go back & check it out but forgot.
From Shoreditch High St, walk down Calvert Avenue. About 3/4 of the way down on the right hand side is a gallery. Ask in there & i'm sure you will find answers.

Something that many examples of art lack these days.
Can't wait for the next artist to do the wall - I have high res pics of the other two and a third would look excellent framed beside it - a 2 colour BLU perhaps?
Or maybe Word to Mother pulls another inventitive one like down near London Fields? www.flickr.com/photos/romanywg/2917500779/

He has a couple of canvases and some hand made t-shirts - some very cool stuff!

Stik STREET ART, by rebate on Jun 21, 2019 11:25:58 GMT 1, 
In 2011British Artist STIK painted a large mural in Gdansk, Poland with Laznia Centre for Contemporary Art. Afterwards STIK stopped off to make another, collaborative mural with young people from the local community which they titled ‘It’s Complicated’. In 2014 unbeknown to STIK both murals, each painted on a shipping container, went missing and reappeared in a London gallery, cut into pieces and severed at the hands selling at around £30,000 a piece.
The works had been ‘acquired’ by Lamberty Antiques and after STIK publicly condemned the sale, pieces spread to Bankrobber, then Galerie Kronsbein in Germany. One of the young people who had been involved in making the mural, known only as ‘Miss Take’ founder of the collective ‘Graffiti Ladies’, campaigned for the next five years alongside STIK for the return of the mural.
Finally, in 2019 after much campaigning, petitioning and rallying public support an agreement was reached with Lamberty and the young people's community mural was completely recovered and then shipped to Gdansk. The majority of the pieces of the other missing solo mural by STIK were retrieved and destroyed by the artist to prevent them re-entering the market and the missing pieces remain listed with the relevant authorities.
"I only permit the sale of street artworks when the money goes directly back to the community it was painted for." said STIK who regularly generates funding for charities around the world in this way. Miss Take said "I’m really happy to see the mural coming back to Gdansk, it has been really hard work to get it back where it belongs. Finally!". The mural currently sits in a storage facility on the outskirts of Gdansk hoping to find a more public place to live…
The return of the mural was made possible by Laznia Centre for Contemporary Art, Boodle Hatfield LLP, Graffiti Ladies, Miss Take, The Institute of Art and Law, Becky Shaw, Fred Clark, Michael Edinburg QC, Tim Maxwell, Rudy Capildeo, Ania Szynwelska,Jadwiga Charzynska, Alex Herman, Detective George Demetriou, Richard Roberts, Kinga at JLSW, The British Council, Art Loss Register, James Ratcliffe, Flight Logistics, Russell Perkins, RYCA, Jo Brooks, Urban Art Association, Jack Cerrano, Mikey Dread, Robin Phillips, Claude Crommelin, Ana Laurini, Kilburn Strode, Carrollanne Lindley, Jack Cerrano, Printspace, Change.org, Giles Angel, Sheila Chandra, Grayson Perry, SOSM, Mariusz Jaksik, Hackney Citizen, Hackney Gazette, The Art Newspaper, Melanie Gerlis, DACS, Evelinka, RSH, Richard, Invader, Clet Abraham, Mr. Simon, Ling Mann, Emiliano, Kevin, New Waverly Studios and everyone who signed the petition.
