Ben Eine Typography

Ben Eine Display, Middle Hall, Year 5.

Year 5 have been exploring the work of artist Ben Eine. We researched Typography which is the Art of lettering. Ben Eine is a street artist whose work may be really familiar if you have ever walked from our school to Westfield through the Olympic Park, as he designed a wall of lettering near to the fairground!  Eine is famous for his alphabet lettering on shop shutters in London's ShoreditchBrick Lane and Broadway Market areas.  He has also taken his lettering to the streets of ParisStockholmHastings and Newcastle upon Tyne. Year 5 responded to his work by producing oil pastel lettering of their first name initial. The work looks incredible and can be seen in the middle hall. Year 5 would be really interested to find out your opinions of their work as we are very proud of the results.

Lettering in Hackney Road, Ben Eine.
