Who ate my marmite?

Luxembourg artist Alain stopped in Penge after Upfest in Bristol (2022). The artist wished to paint something that captured the land he was painting in, so we have a Border Terrier dressed up as Sherlock Holmes, sat aloft a black cab which is driving through Westminster, asking the all important question as to who ate his marmite?.

Created for the Penge Street Art Project

The Penge Street Art Project is an unfunded, non-profit initiative dedicated to bringing vibrant street art to Penge, South London. Established in January 2015 by London Calling Blog, the project is run by a passionate group of volunteers who share a love for street art and its power to transform urban spaces.

Independent of businesses or council organizations, the project operates without external funding, ensuring a public platform for art free from advertising or commercial influence. By working closely with both artists and residents, the initiative helps shape and manage public spaces, brightening the area and enriching the lives of the people who live there.

Since its inception, the project has facilitated over 700 street artworks across South London, turning Penge into a recognized open-air gallery. With a constantly evolving collection of murals—from local and international artists—the project continues to foster a dynamic and engaging street art scene, making art accessible to all.
