A new graffiti artwork has appeared in Shrewsbury, Darwin inspired 😀

Excited to see that we’ve had a visit during the night! Come and see the cool ‘guerilla art’ that has appeared on the walls of the market hall building overnight.

Located in the market hall’s undercroft entrance, between Shoplatch and Claremont Street, it’s the work of the street artist known as Disney, dubbed the ‘Birmingham Banksy’.

His street chimpanzee plays on Shrewsbury’s historical connection with Charles Darwin and for this stencil graffiti artwork he’s signed off as ‘Darwisney’. He has called the work ‘the evolution of the monkey’.

The artist dropped by because of the Shrewsbury Arts Trail that includes famous Dali sculptures and art exhibitions at venues across the town this summer.

Arts Trail exhibitions are being held at Shrewsbury Museum and Art Gallery and venues including the new Viewing Deck here at the market hall. Dali sculptures are located at the museum and art gallery and Shrewsbury Castle. Pick up an arts trail guide or visit the Shrewsbury Arts Trail website for the full info.
