""Doing street art in London for the last decade, I have seen firsthand the increase in homelessness, the city has become overwhelmed. I take a lot of inspiration from everything I see on the streets of London, and I had always wanted to make something powerful to represent this aspect of the city.""
"The artwork not only reflects the institutions ongoing efforts but foregrounds the need for more effort, assistance, and awareness beyond the church's walls."
"For me, this work is very specific to London. I think it captures the essence of the city's struggles and the stark realities faced by many."
A street art piece by Endless, depicting a rough sleeper with the text "210,000 Homeless today," is installed at Bloomsbury Central Baptist Church in London. This location, near a wealthy shopping area, emphasizes the contrast between affluence and homelessness. The artwork serves as a visible reminder of the pressing issue of homelessness, inspired by Endless's experiences in the city. The collaboration with the church, which runs a night shelter program, aims to raise awareness and encourage further assistance for the homeless community.
