Banksy confirms that he is behind series of works on east coast
More than a week after works appeared in locations across the English east coast, Banksy has confirmed in a video and via his website that he is behind them.
The video on his Instagram channel shows an artist travelling around the seaside towns in a white camper van.
On his way, soundtracked to an accordion version of Tones And I by Dance Monkey, he visits places including Great Yarmouth, Gorleston and Cromer in Norfolk; and Lowestoft and Oulton Broad in Suffolk.

Some of the works revealed online on Saturday morning had not previously been known to be part of the ‘spraycation’
But it was widely believed that the elusive Bristol street artist was behind the murals that had already hit the national and international headlines.
It is one of the largest number of new Banksy works since his Banksy vs Bristol Museum exhibition in the summer of 2009.
