Has Banksy moved to hull, or just viewing the sights.


The anonymous graffiti artist has appeared in hull, the mural in Scott Street has drawn dozens of visitors after it was unveiled on a disused bridge. Leaving behind a stencilled design, which shows a child carrying a wooden sword with a pencil attached to the end, under the text " Draw the raised bridge". Speculation of the artists identity was rife after the work, on a disused river crossing was spotted by passers-by. Pictures of the mural were shared on Banksy's official Instagram account, confirming that he was responsible for it.


Hundreds of fans responded. with some expressing surprise at the location and other speculating on the meaning of the work. with a number of people suggesting Hull's recent run as UK City of Culture may have inspired the artwork. while many more were quick to link the work to Brexit, after recent pieces which touched the UK's impending departure from the European Union. Only last may Banksy unveiled a mural in Dover which depicted a workman removing a star from the EU flag, showing that he certainly has a strong view on the topic.


It defiantly will not be the last time we see another piece of Banksy's artwork, whenever or wherever I cant wait what Banksy does next.
