UK artist Jamie Hewlett and the anonymous street artist Banksy are not the same person, but there is a notable connection between them that has fueled persistent speculation for years. Hewlett is the acclaimed co-creator of the comic strip Tank Girl and the visual mastermind behind the virtual band Gorillaz, a project he started with Blur frontman Damon Albarn. Banksy, the elusive and iconic Bristol based graffiti artist known for satirical stenciled street art, has had his identity a subject of intense public debate.

The main link surfaced in 2018 when an anonymous forensics expert claimed to have traced the ownership of various companies associated with Banksy's art sales and authentication back to a "J Hewlett". These companies include "Picturesonwalls Ltd" and "Pest Control Office Ltd," the sole agency that authenticates Banksy's work. This discovery led to a frenzy of theories that Jamie Hewlett was the face behind the stencils.

Further adding to the connection, Banksy's artwork appeared in the Gorillaz music video for "Tomorrow Comes Today," featuring a known Banksy gorilla stencil. Banksy also designed the cover art for Blur's 2003 album Think Tank, solidifying the artistic link between the two camps through their mutual associate, Damon Albarn. When approached for comment, Banksy's publicist denied the theory, stating, "I can confirm that Jamie Hewlitt is not the artist Banksy". The expert pointed out the deliberate misspelling of Hewlett's name in the publicist's denial as a possible technical avoidance of lying, further intensifying the mystery. Ultimately, while the two artists have clear professional and social connections, possibly indicating a close friendship or even collaborations, the theory that Jamie Hewlett is Banksy has been officially denied.

________________

Nick Walker is a British street artist born in Bristol in 1969 who helped pioneer the stencil graffiti movement that would later define Banksy. Emerging from the city’s early 1980s scene alongside members of the Wild Bunch music collective, Walker began combining freehand spray technique with intricate hand-cut stencils, producing images that feel spontaneous yet photographically precise.

His signature character is “The Vandal,” a bowler-hatted gentleman who splashes vivid paint across grey walls, a witty self-portrait that questions the divide between order and rebellion. Works such as Moona Lisa, a stencil of the Mona Lisa baring her bottom, and the large mural Painting the City Red on Nelson Street, Bristol, have become landmarks in urban art tours.

Walker’s influence on Banksy is widely acknowledged: both artists refined stencil craft in the same Bristol circles, shared walls during the 1990s and exhibited through Pictures on Walls, the influential London print house that launched many street artists into the gallery market. In 2008 Walker’s solo show at Black Rat Gallery sold £750,000 of art in a single night, proving the commercial power of street aesthetics on canvas.

International residencies followed, including a 2013 stint at the Quin Hotel in New York where he filled the lobby with red paint drips and bowler-hatted silhouettes, extending his visual language into luxury spaces. Whether on brick, aluminium or restaurant wall, Walker continues to celebrate the city as “the ultimate canvas,” reminding viewers that a sharply cut stencil and a dash of humour can still stop traffic and start conversations.
