Phlegm mural on the City Kennels

Recommended Posts

Hi

Went past a few days ago and noticed that the Phlegm mural on the wall of the dogs kennels has been covered over by a green piece of artwork. I will miss the original - anyone know why it was painted over?

No idea and quite sad to see it go. Last time I passed by the wall was being painted white. Has it been painted further?

it was unsightly but it was painted on his door and window frame as I recall.

As for phlegm I don't understand why he has to come to Sheffield to do graffiti, apparently he only lived in the city a few years and is back on his native Isle of Wight, so I'm informed. All he seems to paint are snakes and Trees .. What's that about

What I don't understand is why musicians go around twanging their instruments and singing at people in places that they have no connection with

In no way comparable with graffiti.

I passed this today, I think it's great. It's quite trippy, if you look at a fixed point on it as you walk past it starts messing with your perception in a Bridget Riley-esque way. It's a shame it's not somewhere that you could get a less restricted view of it.
