Bison mural painted in London as stark reminder of what wildlife we have lost

The first-ever London Mural Festival took place in September 2020 with over 150 artists from around the world, painting large-scale walls across the capital. The London Mural Festival is about bringing art to the people in a public gallery, which became the world’s biggest celebration of street art.

One particular artist, Mark Anthony, from ATM Street Art, took it upon himself to paint this magnificent beast – the European bison. Mark was inspired by Kent Wildlife Trust and The Wildwood Trust's Wilder Blean project, funded by players of People’s Postcode Lottery, where bison will be introduced to an ancient woodland in Kent.
