C215 - UK Street Art Exhibition Back to Black

Having checked out the stunning new London street art mural in Shoreditch by French Stencil artist C215 over the weekend, we then headed over to Stolen Space Gallery on Osborn Street to visit the artists recently opened 'Back To Black' solo exhibition at the space.

Hookedblog were unable to attend the opening preview of the exhibition when it opened last Thursday but we were lucky enough to catch up with Christian Guémy aka C215 at the gallery for a quick chat once he had finished signing books for his fans at the space.

The exhibition at Stolen Space sees the street artist present a new collection of large artworks alongside smaller pieces on a variety of recycled objects such as paper folders, old suitcases, and various metal tins which were among some of our favorite pieces at the show.

The spray-painted stencil works in a stripped back palette of colour, featured newly cut imagery as well as some classic C215 stencil images, a number of which have previously appeared on the streets of East London. If you missed the exhibition we have collected here some of our favorite pieces from the Back to Black show in the gallery of images below, take a look.
