Banksy has unveiled a new guerilla art series on London's Underground subway system that is COVID-themed, featuring masks and one of his favorite subjects, rats. The enigmatic artist shared a short video featuring him spray-painting stencils of rats spreading disease and not using masks the way they're meant to.
As you'd expect from Banksy it's provocative and clever, but in this case it's enough of a PSA for safe practices that the Underground system might actually approve. The video also features just a little of the enigmatic artist's face (if it is indeed him) cinched up in a hazmat suit and goggles. It's also got a clever campaign slogan -- and '90s one hit wonder theme song -- so watch to the end. Banksy also writes in his Instagram post "If you don’t mask - you don’t get." Check out the one-minute video below.
