Crimes of Passion

Stencil King and Bristol native Nick Walker just did a mighty nice thing and dropped us this sneak peek of the piece he produced for Crimes Of Passion, the massive show now on at the Royal West Of England Academy.

It's good to be reminded that shit hot things are still happening way out west, and that the shabbadelic streets of Shoreditch are not the be-all-and-end-all of street art.

But if you still need convincing that there's more to Bristol than the silver-toothed Banksy, get down to the RWA before May 4, and get yourself an education.

With the likes of 3D, Inkie, Mr Jago, Will Barras and multimedia maestro Acerone all in attendance, it's bound to be good.
