The post Banksy Creates Three New Murals Featuring Animals in London appeared first on PlayJunkie.
]]>The first mural featured a stencil of a wild goat maintaining its balance on a narrow column of a building while rocks crumble below its feet. The artwork is located in the Kew district in West London.
The second mural is located in Chelsea and sees silhouettes of two elephants extending trunks towards each other from bricked-up windows as a form of greet.
Finally, the third artwork features stencils of three swinging monkeys. The mural was placed on a train bridge in the famous Brick Lane street in East London.
The artworks prompted a series of theories from internet users about the meaning of the artworks. However, this will likely remain a mystery as Banksy didn’t caption any of the posts and rarely shares details about his inspiration or intention behind his works.
The new murals are the first from Banksy since March when he created a green splatter on a wall behind a cut-down tree. At the time, many took the artwork as a commentary on humans’ relationship with nature.

]]>Back in 2023, the group acquired an original print of Girl with Balloon artwork created by famous street artist Banksy for $97,000. They then went on to lock the proof of authenticity and removed the number of the print before meticulously working on replicating the piece until even an art expert couldn’t tell the difference.
They made 299 prints of the fake Girl with Balloon and will sell them for $500 each alongside the original. This means that one of 300 buyers will get the original but will have no way of knowing it.
“By replicating the print and concealing the provenance, all 300 prints are rendered equal. Any of the 300 people could have the original, but there is no way to tell. Which begs the question, are they ALL by Banksy or is NONE by Banksy?” it says on The Missing Balloon’s official website.
Those interested in taking part in the stunt can sign up on the official website. The group will select 300 buyers at random from the email list in the summer of 2024.
