Banksy

Banksy's art is characterized by satirical street art and subversive epigrams that blend irreverent dark humor with a distinctive stenciling technique. These works of political and social commentary appear on streets, walls, and bridges worldwide. Evolving from the Bristol underground scene, his style draws inspiration from earlier artists working with graffiti and stencils. Banksy expresses contempt for government labeling of graffiti as vandalism, showcasing his art on public surfaces and challenging notions of art ownership.
