Banksy famous for his witty and social critique takes on love time and time again. Kissing Coppers suggests that love should be accepted publicly and displayed freely, conventional or not, love is love. In his latest mural Mobile Lovers, Banksy takes on our addiction to cellphones and how couples get distracted by technology. Then we have his New York piece Love Hurts. A foil heart balloon is covered in plasters, a simple but again a clever piece by the stencil king.

One of Londons most Loved street artists, Stik, paints stick figured people. These colourful stick people are so intriguing because he is able to express so much emotion and convey complex body language with these simple shapes. We think this one in Hackney, London shows a public display of affection at its best.

D*Face has painted his own reinterpretation of pop art on billboards, street walls and canvases across the world. Although he draws strongly on imagery from pop artists like Lichtenstein, his work has a more sinister side capturing the emotions of love.

Hunto‘s pieces are an ongoing exploration of the intertwined themes of eroticism and human relationships. Like Picasso before him, and inspired by that same spellbinding Mediterannean light, this Italian isn’t afraid of colour, bold shapes and movement.
Enjoy Valentines Day and listen to the wise words from Huntoland ….Lets Flirt!
Hunto,
