The question everyone wants to know, who is Banksy?

     The very mention of his pseudonym gives anyone who knows anything about art a recognizable sight. Banksy has become the most famous anonymous artist of all time, but we still don't know who he is or where he will appear next. Neat believes that his street art is a crime and that he has set a negative example for others - graffiti artists. Banksy has developed an entire art subculture dedicated to his work and is undoubtedly one of the most influential artists of the present day. Despite his involvement in the graffiti scene, his identity remains unknown, and he has yet to develop his own brand of street art, or even the entire art subculture dedicated to Banksy's work. 

    Banksy's works on the streets of London in the late 1990s and early 2000s as well as his works in New York City and London. His works not only include many powerful and often controversial images, but they can also be found as viral images on the Internet. He is also known for his use of copyrighted material such as photos, videos and other copyrighted materials in his works. One example is Banksy, who adapted a series of images from the popular video game "The Hunger Games" (2004) to incorporate the image of a floating garbage in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean in London. 

    Banksy's worldwide fame has transformed his artwork from an act of vandalism into a sought-after work of art. Journalist Max Foster calls rising graffiti prices "street art" and the "Banksy Effect." Banksy, a world-famous graffiti artist, has done just that, travelling the world and putting up pictures that are left to people to find the message. We don't know much about Banksy, not only because we worked with him, but also because we don't know who he is physically. Who is Banksy? The question every modern day art enthusiast would like to know.

    He has many different works of art all over the world, and each has a message, often a political one. His identity remains unknown, but he is known for his political work published in Britain as well as his work in other countries. One of his graffiti designs has now appeared on the side of a garage in Port Talbot, and very little is known about the elusive artist. There are a number of theories about who the real Banksy is, but he is best known for a graffiti design. 

BANKSY BIO

     What we do know is that the artist is from Bristol, where he first created his works in the city. Banksy was born in 1974, and although his identity is well-guarded, he has caught the eye in recent years for his unique style of graffiti. The anonymous "British graffiti artist," as he is known, often does his graffiti in public places. 

In the 2000s he developed a method of communicating his anti-authoritarian message through the use of various forms of graffiti such as spray paint, spray paint and graffiti paint. 

    After Banksy had previously worked largely freehand, at the end of the 19th century he switched to stencil works, the work of which is now largely recognized as his work. He adopted the name "Banksy" in order to conceal his identity from prying eyes and essentially avoid arrest for illegal artistic activities. Banksy was heavily influenced by his father, who, like him, used stencil patterns to create his works. He has been caught on CCTV a few times and is said to have been associated with rats as an influencer, but is clever enough to keep his identity a secret. Banksy's spotters claim to know the artist's true identity fairly regularly. Recurring themes in his work are violence, violence against women, sexual violence and the use of violence as a means of expression. 

    Banksy's work has been repeatedly equated with vandalism, and many have called for his prosecution, but he has never been convicted of a crime. Bansky is just an ordinary vandal who corrupts the principles of society by painting street paintings. His choice of theme, coupled with the fact that the paint is typically sprayed on public walls, leads to the perception that he is where he is. 

    Despite his complete anonymity, Banksy is an artist and activist living in England, whose identity around the world is still shrouded in secrecy, an identity that, however, does not prevent him from participating in a variety of activities. He creates complex street art by using the cloak of darkness to preserve his anonymity. Like many others, his art is an agenda - a certain label, but not necessarily the result of his intentions. Banksy is an English-based street graffiti artist from London, England, and is believed to have first revealed himself in the early 1990s to avoid prosecution for vandalism. 

    In the 1990s, the street artist, activist, and filmmaker successfully hid his identity as Banksy from the police and London's Metropolitan Police. He is one of the most sought-after artists in the world of graffiti art today and the subject of a number of films and television shows.
