Bird Watching in Shoreditch with Costah

In recent weeks there has been somewhat of a boom in number of paste ups going up on walls around the East End. Although not everyone is a fan of this medium, we personally love a good pasteup and enjoy seeing how the change and evolve if left up long enough. A mix of local London artists and some international artists have been contribution some of this new work we have been seeing around Shoreditch and Brick Lane. One of these artists is Portuguese street art and tattooist Nuno Doc Costah aka Costah. The artist has been hitting the neighbourhood hard over a number of visits which have seen an invasion of his large scale hand painted pasteups featuring one of his signature bird characters. Below are are a selection of some of the birds from Costah we have spotted.
