Bortusk Leer, by paul on Feb 18, 2008 18:29:29 GMT 1, Hi guys
Been around Brick Lane and Old street the other day, and unovoidable were the bortusk leer paste-ups. Personally i really like them (well the creature ones, not the people), and was wondering what your views were, and also whether bortusk leer has a site or flickr page. cheers Paul

Bortusk Leer, by romanywg on Feb 18, 2008 20:12:35 GMT 1, Here is a pic as I'm sure 95% of the people on here won't have heard of him/her/it. His work has been quite prolific around Shoreditch since mid January but know nothing about him/her at all. Personally I like it in that they make me smile each time I see one as they remind me of Childrens drawings. Very naive. All flickr pics here. www.flickr.com/search/?q=bortusk+leer&s=rec

Bortusk Leer, by moonmorals on Feb 18, 2008 21:35:06 GMT 1, nice one, romany for the heads up on the pigeons,...ive been wondering about them for a while. so who is Mr/Mrs Leer. Whoever it is, is pretty prolific. I really like the use of newspaper on these and thinkfly. Being constantly surrounded by free newspapers everyday its good to see some good recycling going on

Interesting thought. Can't find any info on him showing his work there, in fact can't find any info on him/her at all
