Reposted: @chasecontemporary In the early 1980s, Paris started finding rats on its walls.
They weren’t random; they were the work of Blek le Rat, one of the artists who helped define the language of stencil-based street art. For Blek, the rat was more than an image. It was a symbol of survival, movement, and urban presence.
Small, unwanted, impossible to fully control.
Exactly like street art itself, what began as a repeated stencil became one of the most recognizable visual signatures in contemporary street art.
In the last 12 months we have recycled 14.5 tons of cardboard, paper and plastic… That’s the equivalent of 25 cuddly Grizzly Bears.
Just one part of our drive to offset our CO2 emissions. 😊
Many thanks to our recycling partner Ecogen Recycling

During a walk about the Surrey Artist Open Studios trail this weekend, I stopped by the studio of Libby Daniels (@libby_daniels_ceramics) to view her latest collection of handmade ceramics.
I took the opportunity to ask Libby about her process, particularly how she develops shapes and explores colour in her work. It was also interesting to discuss whether she creates with a specific audience in mind, or whether her focus is primarily on personal exploration and enjoyment in making ceramics.
Libby’s work can next be seen at the Sussex Craft Week event in Arundel, 20–28 June 2026.

Top tip… When shipping artwork internationally in a wooden crate, correct packaging marks really matter. Missing or incorrect markings can lead to customs delays, returns, or even (gulp) destruction of the artwork.
Top tip: Avoid using red or orange stamps unless required for hazardous goods, as they may trigger unnecessary customs inspections.
Our crate markings indicate ISPM 15 compliance, fragile contents, keep dry instructions, correct orientation, dimensions, and gross weight helping ensure safe and compliant transit worldwide.
