Our new home in New Brighton on the Wirral has started to become known for it graffiti street art on some of the buildings and a recent high street addition has been art done by graffiti artist Insa. Like the other street art in the area the artwork really grabs your attention and makes a bold statement - something I like as in these uncertain times of Covid-19 it feels like a positive statement that my new town wants to shout out and be noticed.
Insa is a British artist and designer who graduated from Goldsmith’s, London, beginning his career as a graffiti writer, painting streets and buildings as he travelled. He’s known for his trademark ‘graffiti fetish’ pattern which in the building he’s done in New Brighton can be seen on top of a background of amazing rainbow colours.
It feels amazing that my new hometown has work by an artist whose work features in major global cities such as Tokyo, LA, New York, San Francisco Luxembourg, Lisbon, Hong Kong, Warsaw, Berlin, Brussels and Montreal as well as being held in the V&A collection and Tate London.
