STEEL JUNGLE 2022: New public art installation in Newcastle UK

I’m very pleased to announce the unveiling of my newest public art commission: A stepped mural on Queen St, Quayside Newcastle UK. Taken inspiration from the colours of Tyne brigdge, I re-worked a design I previously painted on a canvas before the pandemic – see first version on photo below.

Chicken Dust – a new mural in Bushwick

| Florence EMA Blanchard

I just came back from New York where I worked on a few different projects. Despite the blazing heat I managed to reclaim an old wall I had painted in 2007 in Bushwick on Humbolt street. Special thanks to Ed and the people from Enrique Mini Market for helping out! x
