UK Street Artist Sweet Toof Returns To London
Onetime London resident and legendary street artist Sweet Toof made a welcome return to the streets of East London over the last number of weeks. Famed for his signature pink gummy teeth from Bushwick to Bow the artist's works have adorned rooftops, freight trains, buildings, and walls up and down the UK and beyond.
December 2018 saw the artist take his work indoors with him staging a solo exhibition here in London, titled Mid Night Crisis. The show featured a series of new large oil paintings from Sweet Toof along with sculptural works, ceramics, and our favorite, Sweet Toof's handmade lino and woodcut print editions.

His most recent visit saw the artist taking to the streets of the East End of London with new works appearing in Brick Lane, Sclater Street, Hanbury Street, Columbia Road, and a number of new additions to walls and rooftops in Hackney Wick.Two of the new works saw Sweet Toof collaborate with a one-time crew member and Bristol-based artist Rowdy known for his sharp-toothed crocodiles. They were also joined by street artist Knapple adding her pineapple piece to the roller shutter near Columbia Road and again on a second street artwork on Hanbury Street, London.
Sweet Toof signature on the mural piece pictured above painted just off Brick Lane in the London street art hotspot that is the Seven Stars Yard car park.
One, two, three! An early start is needed to catch these three roller shutters painted by Sweeet Toof featuring some gummy skulls located on Sclater Street, again just off Brick Lane.
With a gallery at this location, the security shutters are often up, and should you want to see them in person we suggest getting up early before the gallery opens or if you ask the gallery staff nicely they may pull the shutters down to allow you to take some photographs.

Another roller shutter from street artist Sweet Toof just off East London flower market on Columbia Road. The piece sees the artist collaborate with Bristol-based street artists Rowdy and Knapple.
A rare car-free day window allowed us to capture a photograph of this fun Sweet Toof piece on Brick Lane, London just off the famous Beigel Shop.
There are a number of additional works by the street artist painted further East in Hackney Wick that we have to photograph so stay tuned for more.
