how great is that photo  never seen him while doing his art.
Intersing that he didn´t just use a ladder.
The more noticeable it is, the less noticeable it is at the end. So it looked like they were working on the wall as a construction. I would be interested in how long this whole process took, so no officials had the chance to let the fones ring to ask what they are doing on their wall

Boggles the mind that you can set up concealed scaffolding against a prison wall and not get rumbled.. To be fair, it’s not a prison anymore(it was closed in 2014, I think), therefore the security around it is nowhere near what it used to be |

Brilliant work. 99.8% confident this is Banksy. Same here. Plus, if that was someone else, I guess he/she would already claimed it |

Can't tell for sure but the pic looks like it was taken early morning. So if it went up really early they could have taken it all down by mid-morning.
Or it could have been done with permission/knowledge.

in the current pandemic climate and the governments struggles to get the majority of the public to adhere to the current rules this was most likely done with permission, the public location on a main road and being a government building this would of raised suspicions or investigations especially with reading still being on a terror alert from the incident last year and all the recent incidents this year in reading, more so if reading have councilors like Jackie weaver driving around and spotted 👀😮

Builders/ scaffolders are still working through the lockdown so the unsuspecting public wouldn't have thought much about it. As long as you social distance it's all good & cant get a better distance that at the top of a scaff tower behind what is essentially a giant mask 😆

great insight into his process. cool to see all the little details from using spray water and yellow to create a dingy prison uniform to the sharpie on the can labeled 'skin'. Love how the bob ross commentary fits it perfectly. to me this piece means that even though we are all locked down we can still create.
i guess this is why it took a bit to confirm- he had to edit the video.
