@d7606art — Paste Ups, Pop Icons & Street Culture 🎨
UK street artist D7606 has built a strong presence across the streets of the UK and Europe with his instantly recognisable wheatpaste works. Active since 2012, he began by documenting street art in East London before creating his own pieces. What started as a passion quickly grew into a prolific practice, with his colourful paste ups appearing from London to Berlin.
His work celebrates iconic cultural figures. From Marilyn Monroe and Twiggy, to Audrey Hepburn and David Bowie, D7606 reimagines these legends through bold pop colours and graphic compositions. His signature British red phone boxes transform everyday street furniture into playful pop art frames.
Collaboration is central to his journey. He’s worked with artists like:
@kafkaisfamous @c_3 and
@chrisrwk He has curated large collaborative walls, and appeared at major festivals like City of Colours Street Art Festival. His work has even been featured in the
@straatmuseum showing how paste up street work can move from streets to gallery spaces. He also featured in the Cash is King 2 show at the
@saatchi_gallery further cementing his presence within major contemporary art spaces.
We were blessed to finally meet him last year after collecting a few of his pieces a few years back. It was a real honour to speak with someone who has contributed so much to the street art scene. The love he has for the culture truly shines.
While on a graffiti tour in New York with
@bytegirl24 she mentioned D7606 when explaining how paste ups are often swapped between artists in different countries and then put up across cities worldwide. Hearing her speak about our friend in that context filled us with immense pride. That was such a special moment.
On another street art tour in Paris, we even spotted one of his paste ups in the wild, which was incredible. Seeing his work appear across cities really shows the reach and influence of his art.
From cheeky pop culture references to bold paste up interventions across Europe, D7606 continues to keep the spirit of street art alive, colourful, collaborative, and always rooted in the streets.
