BANKSY

A writer from sassfromsassafras explains Banksy as, "A pseudonymous England-based graffiti artist, political activist, film director and painter."

Banksy is one of the most famous street artists from England. He is known for his politically themed and stenciled pieces. Although his identity is unknown, there are many theories. 

Many think that his real name is Robin Banks and that he used to be a butcher. There is also a suggestion that Banksy is a collective of artists and does not exist at all. 

No matter who he really is, his artworks are appreciated.
