THE ONLY EXAMPLE OF STREET ART THAT I SAW IN NEWBRIDGE

There seems to be limited street art easily visible in Newbridge compared to other towns. However, there’s evidence suggesting a recent surge in street art activity, particularly in the summer of 2023.

Recent street art additions:

George’s Lane: The artwork in this photograph was likely part of this initiative. After some research I can confirm that this is by Holly Pereira and it could be described as being on Eyre Street.
Eyre Street: Murals by Holly Pereira and others were created here. I will visit again as I did not explore this street. 
Military Road: Paul Woods contributed a mural on the Council Machinery Yard Wall.

Reasons for limited visibility:

New initiatives: The recent projects indicate a budding street art scene, so it may take time for more works to appear and gain visibility.
Location: Some murals might be in less prominent locations, making them harder to discover without specifically seeking them out.
Temporary nature: Street art can be ephemeral, with works painted over or removed over time.
