Last time I suggested about paintings on that wall by Paddy power there was mentioned an issue about consent. Anyone know who owns it?

The Banksy type phone could be incorporated…can enquiries be made of the restaurant/flat the other side of the wall?

That’s always a problem we come across sadly, if it was up to me I’d just go ahead and do it, without having thioughts about consequences, but thankfully I always have @Michael to run my ideas by to stop me getting in trouble :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye::stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

I value his opinions strongly & he keeps me on track with my crazy ideas of what will or won’t work for FH.

This is why we both work so well together

So where did you get to Pauline ? Did you find out the owners ?

#37

I’m on the case!, and I know the owner.

So just a case of dropping by for a chat.

I’ll pop by tomorrow to chat with Paul :slight_smile:

Got sidetracked by another thread tonight.

But just want to report back that I spoke to Paul , the owner of this building and he is contacting the original artist to see if he wants to salvage this art work.

If not he is willing for me to ask if anyone wants to redo a piece of art on this space - cover & redo :slight_smile:

I’d love a new piece. This could be Forest Hill’s own 4th plinth project.

Great work Pauline. Hopefully keep that piece and have a brand new one on that much more messy wall opposite and outside Party Power.

#45

Great stuff ! Any word on the other side ?

#46

Someone started work painting the building the ruined mural is on today…will it survive at all??

#47

We spoke to the painter when he was painting over what was left. He told us there are no plans to replace the mural with something new due to the problems with vandalism/tagging.

#49

I had a look at the art work on the other side of this building on the way past and noticed it seems intact and untagged.

Blank canvas for tags now :upside_down_face:
