What better way to start the holiday season than a visit to an art exhibition? Janie has long been especially interested in street art. We both very much enjoyed seeing street art in its intended environment a few years ago:
The Banksy Limitless exhibition collects a large number of Banksy works, plus other works inspired by Banksy, in a pop-up gallery in South Kensington, ironically on the site of a former Christies auction house.
We both went a bit wild with our phone cameras – especially Janie – so you can see more than 80 pictures from our visit by clicking here or below:
For those who don’t want to wade through dozens of pictures – here are a few edited highlights.
I was rather pleased with myself, having used the QR code to download the helpful guide to the exhibits, to assist a fresh-faced young woman from Sydney who was a bit bemused by that exhibit & other items. I said,
I thought young folk like you were supposed to help old folk like us with the tech,
…to which she replied…
I’m useless with tech – it’s a minor miracle that I even found my way to this place.
In truth, the guide only provides some enlightenment on the exhibits, but Banksy isn’t supposed to be about crystal clarity, is it?
We had a lot of fun and were thoroughly pleased with our visit. The exhibition runs until late February 2026 and we’d both certainly recommend it to friends who dig dis kinda ting.
Janie and I then decompressed over Christmas and did some work during Twixtmas, ahead of our early 2026 Sri Lanka trip.
