Stick it up: Shoreditch street art stickers is an ongoing series of blog posts, featuring a collection of photographs of London street art stickers discovered on our travels around the city with a focus on the Brick Lane and Shoreditch areas of East London.

London Street Art Stickers

A large number of street artists create their own stickers, be they hand-drawn one-off stickers or super slick mass-produced street art stickers to share, sell, and use as a means to promote their work/websites or social media handles.

Take a look below at the selection of Shoreditch street art stickers that caught our eye over the last month featuring sticker work from artists Bob Motown, Paul Insect, Zeko, Lempke, Roo, RX Skull, Kaixo, Stinkfish, MauMau, D*Face, Flying Fortress. Solaris100, Onetruth, Cig Thief, and numerous other artists whose names we are not 100% sure on their names.

All the street art stickers featured below were photographed in and around Shoreditch in East London. If anyone knows who has created the unnamed works be sure to let us know the artist's names and we will update the post accordingly. Drop their names in the comments sections below or drop us an email.

A one-time London resident and now LA-based, illustrator and cat-obsessed artist Bob Motown's lousy cat stickers are still to be found around East London on various street furniture some three years after he moved back to LA.

Street artist MauMau was back in the UK last summer and spray painted numerous works in Penge, South London. We also spotted some of his fox characters rolling around Shoreditch in East London in the form of these vinyl stickers.

Colombian street artist Stinkfish is a regular visitor to London, having painted many murals over the years across the city. Alongside the larger mural artworks, the artist frequently hits the streets during his visits installing hand-printed black and white paste-ups and of course, stickers as pictured above.
