Poster 3 (Syke) - Angel Stree / Newtown (Tue 09 Nov 2010)

Poster 3 (Syke) - Angel Street/Newtown - 09 Nov 2010 (picasa)
Stumbled across another Syke Poster. It was just around the corner from the other two (see Poster 1 and Poster 2).

Will take a more bit more of look next week to see if there are anymore around the place.

A few more photos to give an idea of the surrounds.

This poster has been here for quite a while. It is on part of the building that has hosted the recently featured Legs, part of which has been whitewashed out over the years (the building has had various Development Applications which appear to have come to nothing as yet). This poster seems to have survived for some reason. The top left corner one can vaguely make out the word syke. A google search might give some clues - I don't know really. Found a similar poster across the road and will show it in a future post.

Stumbled across another Syke piece this morning. Love the way the paint drips down the wall. This piece was done in 2008. It has a quote from the poem Howl by Allen Ginsberg

Just across the road from Poster 1 (Syke) on the side of a derelict house which has been awaiting redevelopment for many years. The word Syke is more prominent here. The Acid Midget might be able to give some background on these two posters. The following photos give the poster a bit more context to its surroundings.

So simple, yet so effective.

Like the Syke pieces (particularly Syke 5), I love the dripping paint. More Bat photos to follow.
