Brighton Graffiti and Street Art 2025

I have just started photographing graffiti and street art for this new (2025) gallery. It is going to slightly different from earlier years in that I have decided to include much more formal street art, including, for example, where retailers or pubs have painted their shop front.
I am hoping to upload the full gallery by Easter 2025, so at the moment it is not populated.

Although my images can be broken into four groups, on the site I make no such distinctions. I am aware that tagging is often the precursor (and learning ground) for future street and graffiti artists, but I have not particulary photographed many tags as I don’t see much artistic merit in most of them. I have included a few where collectively they are visually interesting, and my interest in really in what I find visually interesting!

The four groups of images are broadly:

  • Illegal graffiti
  • Legal graffiti and street art
  • Shop fronts including coffee and other food outlets and pubs
  • Art that is also advertising

Noteable this year is, as you will see, that the graffiti in the Level Skateboard Park is very tired and worn.
