Day 3: Tuesday

Tuesday d. 20/3 2012

We started the day by travelling to Brixton, where we met with this guy. He was the chief of the largest street art magazine in Europe.

He showed us around the neighborhood, which were filled with paintings and stickers on the walls. He told about the “street art war” where gangs and such kept order in the streets, and made the calls, If you were allowed to hang your stickers on their walls. We also saw the “hall of fame” of street arts. The chief editor showed us this, where he told that it was allowed for everyone to make a drawing or put up a sticker anywhere. But also about how the times had changed, and how the older street artists had been through a lot more trouble, than the newcomers. They might even think they had it too easy nowadays.

After this guided tour around Brixton, we had our lunch break. We fed ourselves and fed the doves. We had some time to do our shopping at the Brixton market.

                     

Later this day, we got some time for shopping. Everybody got excited, and went towards the Oxford Street. We had the rest of the day to ourselves, which we used for shopping, eating, relaxing and perhaps a “little” drinking.
