Dublin born artist, activist and
broadcaster,Will St Leger has
become a household name in the
Irish street art scene since the mid
2000s.
He studied design and visual
communication at Athlone Institute
of Technology and has held solo
exhibitions almost annually from
2006 to 2012 in Dublin.
Among his more provocative shows
was ‘Art Raid’ for Dublin Fringe
Festival 2007, which encouraged
viewers to ‘steal’ the exhibits at the
sound of a security alarm.
