Banksy

Banksy

Also known as the “Falling Shopper”, the mural is located on Bruton Lane on the side of a large office building in the heart of the West End district. The piece is over two storeys up and represents a woman falling with a trolley from the top of a building. Banksy’s aim was to point out the dangers of consumerism. The mural was painted in November 2011 in broad daylight. A scaffolding and a tarpaulin were used to make sure nobody caught the artist red-handed. “Shop Till You Drop” is still visible and quite damaged.
