Pottergate Portraits
‘Pottergate Portraits’ is a study of the Pottergate Underpass area of Norwich, an area designated as a tolerance zone where graffiti artists are encouraged to express themselves freely.
Each graffiti artist understands that each piece is transient and only exists until a new piece replaces it. In fact, the only evidence that this work ever existed is through the existence of these photographs made over a 12 month period from May 2014.
All photographs made on black and white film through a Yashica Mat 124g by Mick Buston.

Pottergate Underpass
Police pay no attention to these graffiti artists at work in Pottergate Underpass, Norwich.
One of many tributes paid to the recently deceased celebrities through graffiti. This amazing piece of work was to Prodigy front man, Keith Flint.
Within days, sometimes just hours, each piece must give way to something new.
Another tribute piece, this time to Rik Mayall.

Full weekend of graffiti with artists coming from far and wide to completely repaint Pottergate Underpass.
Working from reference.
