Back then I took a picture of the graffiti because it was provoking but I had no idea who the artist was.</p> <p><figure> <a href="../../images/banksy-man-window.jpg" rel="light"> <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" alt="" data-src="../../images/banksy-man-window.jpg" class="lazyload" /> <noscript> <img src="../../images/banksy-man-window.jpg" alt="" /> </noscript> </a> <figcaption> </figcaption> </figure> </p> <p>Fast forward to 2015, I came across some artwork that had the distinct style of Banksy and read up more on him and his work. Banksy&rsquo;s pieces usually have a social and political overtone and is usually very accessible to the public, without too much nuances or subtleties.</p>
