At the end of 2021, Penge saw street artists Ben Eine and Nerone collaborate on a wall on High Street in Penge. Street artist Ben Eine is one of London's high-profile street artists, and his work is known globally. The artist currently resides in the U.S., but he does re-visit England in order to paint new work and touch up original walls. Nerone has been painting more recently; I discovered some of the artist's walls in 2015 or 2016. The artist is from France and uses a "party" vibe with bright flowers. The two artists collaborated on the new wall in Penge with Eine creating the typography for the word "Unity" and Nerone creating the floral background. The work has been painted directly onto brick.
In addition to the Penge piece, I recently discovered a new "Last Days" sign mural by Eine in Shoreditch. These have been popping up in places across east London where developers have acquired to build on. So, this spot's days are likely numbered with this fresh piece.
In addition to Eine's work, below are a few additional pieces that I spotted by Nerone over the past few years across east London.
