I’ve been meaning to photograph Leake Street for ages and, as it’s so close to where we live, it’s surprising it’s taken me so many years to finally get there. What I love most about street art is the beautiful and powerful sense of community and personal expression that it provides — for everyone and for free. And it changes all the time so that it’s alive as well. Which is one of the reasons I like to take pictures of street art. Unless it’s a Blek the Rat or a Banksy, it may not be around for very long at all.
