Cheo and Soker paint huge Wallace and Gromit mural
Two of Bristol’s best loved graffiti artists have painted a huge mural of two of Bristol’s best loved plasticine characters.
Cheo and Soker‘s four-storey mural features Wallace and Gromit both wearing tracksuits and sporting heavy gold chains around their necks,
Wallace is also carrying a boombox on his shoulders:
is needed now More than ever
Cheo’s mural is on Newfoundland Street close to the start of the M32
The dastardly Feathers McGraw from The Wrong Trousers also features on the piece on the side of the offices of CW Duke on Newfoundland Street in St Paul’s – a building which used to be a cinema.
It is Cheo’s second version of the Aardman duo, who he first painted on a wall on Broad Quay in 2013 to mark the Gromit Unleashed sculpture trail.
Cheo’s first Wallace & Gromit (right) was later joined by Shaun the Sheep (left)
Bristol24/7 also commissioned Cheo to design our Upfest-inspired front cover in July 2016:
