Street artist TraficGraphics has painted a new mural on one of the area's best walls for street art on Hanbury Street off Brick Lane. (I think that the artist had also painted a chess-playing monkey this spring off Brick Lane as it appears to be in the same style.) The artist has painted a gorilla on a black wall. The gorilla's face is partially showing with the light casting on one angle while the remainder remains blended into the darkness. (I visited this a few times and it remained unfinished, but I last visited earlier this week and noticed the addition of a butterfly on the gorilla's finger.)
A close-up of the gorilla's face is below.
More work by the artist can be seen in my blog here:
