Two New Banksy Murals Appear in London
AI Summary
Two new murals, widely attributed to Banksy, have appeared in London in December 2025. One mural, confirmed by Banksy's Instagram, depicts two children lying on what appears to be a tin roof amidst garbage in Bayswater. The other, unconfirmed but similarly styled, shows the same children lying on a sidewalk near the Centre Point tower in Tottenham Court Road. The murals are timed for the holiday season and have been interpreted as social commentary on rising child homelessness in Britain. Government data released in October 2025 indicated a record high of over 170,000 unhoused children. The Centre Point location is notable due to its association with a leading British youth homelessness charity of the same name.
