URBAN STREET ART - INKFETISH

Some cool street murals from London-based artist Tom Blackford, aka Inkfetish. “Getting into street art was a natural process,” he says. “I started out playing around with graffiti in my teens, then in my early 20’s, I met people that really inspired me to start realizing my illustrations on a bigger scale.”

Inspired by Japanese comics, he has a dark sense of humour that permeates many of his characters.

Tom’s distinct colour palette, often twisted subject matter, technique and bold themes continue to resonate with a growing audience.

CUELLIMANGUI's street art influenced by Japansese prints

Cuellimangui is a street artist, from a small city in South East Spain, Orihuela.
He always had a passion for painting, but in 2004 he started doing it more seriously, between Altea and Orihuela, and later Valencia with old friends.

His subtle patchworks of organic shapes bring life to inanimate objects and the abstract forms he paints. According to him, he uses the walls, to create a dialogue between the viewer and his work and in this way he offers a new kind of communication. His work, he says, is influenced by surrealism, eighteenth-century Japanese prints, tattoo culture and urban aesthetics.
