Wow it’s already turned February. Which means my birthday’s coming soon, I really thought things would have progressed much faster by now. Ah well, have to keep going.
I was around Shoreditch yesterday, and whilst there I thought I’ll take a look inside the Kemistry Gallery…but unfortunately by the time I got there it was closed!! Whilst meandering my way through the side streets (I had a vague memory of how the streets mapped out) I spotted several creative hubs here and there, ‘oh that’s where that is…that’s the place I heard about the other day’. There’s something quite magical about seeing these creative places lit up in the dark, it’s buzzing, but quietly, whether the creative place is a agency with its people still working on their macs and projection screens, an ‘arty’ cafe or a small designer lighting store. I felt that they were working hard because they enjoyed what they were doing, and it almost looked like they were encouraging me to keep trying. Timely, I needed an uplift these days.
There’s always something new up in Shoreditch, and this is what I found yesterday.
What you see walking up from one side
and from the other side…
Apparently, it was painted by street artist ROA.

Yes that’s what makes London great. Maybe something else will replace it the next time I visit.
