Triple Trouble: London’s First and Only Mural by Hirst, Fairey & Invader Lands in Shoreditch
Shoreditch has a new landmark and it’s making art history. Earlier this week, a monumental mural titled Triple Trouble appeared on a wall in East London, uniting three of the most iconic and influential artists of our time: Shepard Fairey (OBEY), Damien Hirst, and Invader.
Painted across a façade in Shoreditch, Triple Trouble is a vivid collision of each artist’s distinct visual language. Fairey’s bold patterns and political motifs weave around Hirst’s unmistakable skulls and spot imagery, while Invader’s pixelated and space motifs punctuate the composition with digital-era defiance. The result is a seamless fusion of fine art, street rebellion, and conceptual wit, a visual dialogue between worlds that rarely meet so directly.

For a city built on artistic collisions this mural is especially significant: it’s the only mural in the world to feature all three artists working together, and the first to include Damien Hirst’s work in public mural form in London.

Triple Trouble embodies what happens when street culture and contemporary art meet in full colour, unfiltered and unscripted, where rebellion becomes rhythm, and collaboration becomes the ultimate act of disruption.

The mural arrives just as Hirst, Fairey, and Invader open their landmark exhibition Triple Trouble at Newport street gallery, presented in association with HENI and curated by Connor Hirst. Running until 29th March 2026, the show extends the same spirit of collision into the gallery.
