Shoreditch has always been the heartbeat of London’s street art world, and this past March, the Pure Evil Gallery captured that energy perfectly with Showcase III. Curated by Waterloo Walls: Shauna Anseo and Stocke, the exhibition brought together 49 artists, creating a space where the raw, evolving nature of our scene was on full display. A huge thanks to Perspicere for his awesome hanging skills and the team at Pure Evil Gallery for supporting this important event.
It was a great experience to be part of such a diverse line-up. The gallery felt alive, buzzing with the kind of energy you only get when you pull that many creators, collectors, and enthusiasts into one room. Seeing the range of work, from bold, traditional graffiti pieces to complex multimedia explorations, was a good reminder of how far we’ve pushed the aesthetic over the last few years.
I had a couple of pieces in the show, standing alongside work from Madam Mizmatiki and a solid crew of other artists like Mr Cenz, 7th Pencil, and My Dog Sighs. It’s important to have these moments where we step out of the studio or off the scaffold and see our work held in a gallery context. It changes the conversation. You aren't just passing by a wall on the street anymore; you’re engaging with the art, the process, and the community in a different way.
For those who made it down, you know the drill, Shoreditch is always moving, and these exhibitions are just one way we keep the momentum going. Whether you were there to pick up a piece, check out the new directions in multimedia, or just catch up with friends in the scene, it was a solid week of art.
If you missed it, keep an eye on the upcoming projects. The scene isn't slowing down, and we're already looking toward the next set of walls and installations.
