Artist Uses Local Resident To Capture the Spirit of Brixton in New Mural
Spanish artist Sebas Velasco is known for his incredible portraits, which combine Old World sensibilities with the urban landscape. Most recently, Velasco brought his talents to southeast London for the London Mural Festival. Painted in Brixton, his large-scale mural shows a local resident with a train passing behind him. The best street art always speaks to its environment, and Velasco takes this philosophy to heart in A Lasting Place.
