Green Stripes, Mango, Eja Kika, and Chili in the City by Lorenzo Vitturi

Italian-born artist Lorenzo Vitturi presents a striking new vinyl artwork on the exterior of the 100 Bishopsgate in London, “Green Stripes, Mango, Eja Kika, and Chili in the City.”

The work draws from Vitturi’s acclaimed Dalston Anatomy series - a vibrant visual response to the cultural energy of Ridley Road Market in East London. This new public commission transports the textures, colours, and hybrid identities of Dalston into the heart of the City, inviting viewers to reflect on the contrasts and connections between these two neighboring areas.

Originally created as a photo-book and installation in 2013, Dalston Anatomy captures the market’s dynamic transformation through sculptural still lives made from organic and found materials. Vitturi’s process, assembling, deconstructing, and rephotographing these materials - mirrors the changing nature of the communities he documents.

By installing large-scale works in a public context, Vitturi continues his long-standing interest in the street as a platform for dialogue and exchange, offering moments of reflection in the busy urban landscape.
