The quiet hiss of the can as someone sprayed, and the shrill metal clacking as they shook it are the most distinctive sounds in Bristol, a city known more for the graffiti on its streets than for the paintings inside its museums. Hometown of Banksy and of Europe’s biggest urban art festival (UpFest), Bristol is undoubtedly the capital town of graffiti and street art.
