Mark Clack, co-founder of Wood Street Walls - a grassroots street art collective - says councils like Tower Hamlets are using outdated methods to tackle the problem. His comment comes as wards across the borough continue to report high levels of graffiti. According to Tower Hamlets Council data obtained via a Freedom of Information request, the borough experienced a 32pc rise in cases over the 2020/21 financial year. 

The Poignant Stories Behind These Colourful Murals

Supplied London is famous for its art galleries and museums – but take to the streets, and you’ll see art is all around. Over the years, councils have valued street art as a way to embellish what were once more deprived areas. And London-based arts organisation Wood Street Walls has played a huge part in this – engaging younger generations to brighten up the city, one wall (or steps and basketball court) at a time. In the past five years alone, they’ve helped create hundreds of murals in east London, treating the city as their canvas to highlight key issues, express their views and encourage creativity. Their aim is to brighten up neighbourhoods, while honouring the context of the local area. “We use public art as a way to engage with the community,” founder Mark Clack tells HuffPost UK.
