Above And Beyond...

Enemie

I was up and out early; it was raining and foggy and it stayed that way all day. The job finished in Cardiff so I popped in to see my parents for a cuppa - they had no inclination to go out in this weather.

Later in the day, on finishing another job I parked up at The Handpost area of Newport and walked to this Electricity sub-station on Bassaleg Road. I saw the artwork yesterday for the first time and thought it'd make a nice photo. So, infront of a bus stop of people and passing motorists I recorded the artwork for eternity.

I don't know who Enemie, the artist, is but his graffiti artwork is appearing in various places in and around Newport. I blipped another of his pieces here in September that was on the wall of an office. Shortly afterwards it was painted out. It appears not everyone is a fan of good graffiti! This is another one I did just a few days ago.

Personally, I think the graffiti is high quality and 'Banksy'ish' - possibly another well known artist in the making?

Nicoiseannie has just identified the artist with newspaper links here .
