Mural of Gluck (Hannah Gluckstein)

—





Turning down onto Orsman Road toward the wall we recognized the faces of the two London based artists Fipsi Seilern and Erin Sammi Holly both busy at work on a new piece.We have previously photographed both artists individually at work on other projects on the streets of London as well as further afield at various street festivals such as the Crystal Ship in Ostend, Belgium , and the Cheltenham Paint Festival here in the UK.This new London mural was the first time these two artists had collaborated on a street painting, brought together by a project for Opening Doors London - one of the largest charities providing services & support for LGBT+ over 50’s.Opening Doors London had invited the artists to contribute a mural as part of the annual UK LGBT+ History Month that takes place each year over the month of February.When we caught up with the two artists mid-afternoon, they had already been at work for a few hours on the mural along a wall on the side of The Glory pub who had granted permission for the mural.
