On the boundary of Commercial Street we find the potential glow of a city within a city. A multi cultural capital and within it an agenda overshadowed from the western metropolis. We propose an intervention in the landscape, a wall not of stone but of aesthetic lifestyle no longer governed by the overseen touristic powers. Taking inspiration from BLAST Magazine, written by Wyndham Lewis this manifesto will instil a sense of leadership through the ritualistic act of street art within the centre of London.
