Do we know who painted them, and who managed the project?
I am making a documentary and desperate for more information.
Please get in touch?!

I wanted to find out more so I did a little Googling.

Your comments and photos are great. Together with the other positive comments on this page, I felt inspired not only to take a look at the other boxes, and street art elsewhere, but to think more about how art can bring this sort of sparkle to Tottenham where we live.
