monkeys animal murals in london bridge

Something interesting was happening on the streets of London that day! Banksy was back after a few months of silence, creating animal murals all over London. In just three days, this mysterious street artist from England has launched new stencil works at several points that are the center of attention. His latest works feature a mountain goat perched on a building wall, two elephants greeting each other through a window, a wolf on top of a building, three monkeys swinging along a London flyover, and several other unique works.

The murals were uploaded to Banksy’s official Instagram account without any explanation, confirming their authenticity. Naturally, this has fans buzzing on the social media platform, speculating on the meaning behind the works and hoping for more, possibly featuring more animals, in the coming days.

Various speculations for the artwork

There’s always something interesting about every work of this street artist. In fact, it’s no surprise that the British street artist remains tight-lipped about the meaning behind his works. Banksy is an artist who rarely captions his posts, not giving any explanation when introducing his new works.

Followers on Instagram have been speculating about the recently revealed mural, with various interpretations being put forward. For the first goat stencil, some believe the artwork is related to Palestine, as the mountain deer is the national animal of the region. While others interpreted the mural as a commentary on the fragile state of British society.

Banksy’s second animal mural depicts the silhouettes of two elephants on the side of a building, their trunks touching but not touching. Commentators have interpreted this as a modern twist on Michelangelo’s Creation of Adam, or as a reference to the ‘elephant in the room’. Here are some of Banksy’s works so you can interpret for yourself the meaning behind the animal murals!
