With thousands of drawings, sketches, paintings, etchings and writings on its walls, it has turned several underground street artists into celebrities. I remember once being told that the city views its buildings as fresh canvases to give its street artists.<\/p>\n<p>A fan of street art, one Sunday, I decided to go on a quest in Bristol to see as much of it as I can. I signed up for a street art tour, organized by \u201cWhere the Wall\u201d (7.80), a reputed art tourism agency. 50 minutes from Cardiff by bus, and ten minutes\u2019 walk from the station took me to College Green, where my tour group met.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_39628\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-39628\" style=\"width: 625px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-39628 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/intercardiff\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2019\/02\/Children-625x352.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"625\" height=\"352\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-39628\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-39628 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/intercardiff\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2019\/02\/Children-625x352.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"625\" height=\"352\" \/><\/noscript> In a seemingly innocent portrait, JPS Stencils poses the question &#8220;What&#8217;s The Big Deal?&#8221;<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Our tour was conducted in a circle, starting from the Bear Pit, a haven dedicated to artists. As we began strolling down to Frogmore Street, a rush of excitement flows through me.<\/p>\n<p>Camille Vansette, our tour guide, notices our fascination with the Banksy piece, the first stop on our tour, and says \u201cBristol\u2019s street art is incredibly interpretive.

A street artist who takes inspiration from both pop culture and his idol Banksy, showcases the hidden meanings in society through this seemingly innocent painting.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe shows a pair of kids dealing cards, and aims to ask the question \u2018What is the big deal?\u2019 to the masses,\u201d says Camille.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_39586\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-39586\" style=\"width: 625px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-39586 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/intercardiff\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2019\/02\/Trump-625x352.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"625\" height=\"352\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-39586\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-39586 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/intercardiff\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2019\/02\/Trump-625x352.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"625\" height=\"352\" \/><\/noscript> Put up shortly after his election in 2016, the writer&#8217;s feelings are reflected clearly through the art.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Wandering a little further, we arrive at the Centerspace Gallery, the entrance of which is located through a labyrinthine tunnel of walls covered in artistic drawings and messages.I marvel sheer volume of colors and creativity that have brightened up the gray walls of the tunnel.<\/p>\n<p>As we wander through the tunnel, I feel like an explorer. Each time I look at the tunnel, I see a new piece of art.\u00a0 There are sketches in politically rousing styles, such as an etching of USA President Donald Trump in bright green with the letters \u2018KKK\u2019 on it, put up shortly after his election. On the floors of the tunnel, hidden in plain sight unless you look close, are small seals.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_39587\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-39587\" style=\"width: 625px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-39587 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/intercardiff\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2019\/02\/Direction-625x352.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"625\" height=\"352\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-39587\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-39587 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/intercardiff\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2019\/02\/Direction-625x352.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"625\" height=\"352\" \/><\/noscript> In an attempt to motivate both himself and the world, the artist builds this sketch.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>As a perfect symbol of the light at the end of the tunnel stands the motivational sketch, painted in bold red, with the words \u201cMy direction is not my excuse\u201d &#8211; the artists\u2019 reassurance to society that nothing stands in the way of getting your goal..<\/p>\n<p>We exit the tunnel, and walk across a square to the City Centre, under several arches that also feature graffiti. Our group continues to marvel at just how much the city has given itself to its artistic side.<\/p>\n<p>We come to several pieces that are a legacy of Bristol\u2019s 2011 See No Evil festival, which commissioned street artists to paint on buildings all over the city. On a six-story-high building, I see a mother tenderly holding her child, in a painting by El Manc called \u2018Clothed Against the Sun.\u2019 Made in delicate concentric lines, it shines like a beacon against the sun. As we pass through the streets, I keep glancing back at it \u2013 it looks different from every angle.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_39589\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-39589\" style=\"width: 625px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-39589 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/intercardiff\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2019\/02\/mom-and-baby-625x351.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"625\" height=\"351\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-39589\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-39589 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/intercardiff\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2019\/02\/mom-and-baby-625x351.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"625\" height=\"351\" \/><\/noscript> In 2011, the &#8220;See No Evil&#8221; festival led street artists to produce pieces driven by emotions, such as El Manc.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>A building nearby holds Nick Walker\u2019s \u2018Vandal.\u2019 Walker, a pioneer of the 1980s Bristol street art movement, uses the painting to express his feelings about the financial crisis through the image of a man in a top hat pouring orange paint on the ground.<\/p>\n<p>In the short walk to Bond Street, the images grew more and more poignant.

The Full Moon, a pub located close to the entrance, is covered entirely in ethereal drawings of the galaxy, encouraged by the owner. Artists such as SMAK, Sled One and Wents have made their name and home here.<\/p>\n<p>The last stop of our wandering is another Banksy, \u2018The Mild Mild West.\u2019 Done in response to the 1990s police disapproval of Bristol\u2019s rave parties, it shows a teddy bear throwing a flame at three police officers. \u201cIt shows that art and the hipster movement would always be able to keep one step ahead of any attempts to stop it,\u201d says Camille.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_39588\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-39588\" style=\"width: 625px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-39588 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/intercardiff\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2019\/02\/Loneliness-625x352.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"625\" height=\"352\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-39588\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-39588 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/intercardiff\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2019\/02\/Loneliness-625x352.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"625\" height=\"352\" \/><\/noscript> The artist has attempted to show that loneliness is prevalent in every part of society &#8211; so close, yet so far.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>On every wall, there seems to be a message.
