"I've a lot of respect for what people are doing here in Manchester, to promote the city's creativity..." — Ben Eine

All too often, when people think about art in the U.K., they think London. There's some really great work being produced outside of the capital city and I think it is important to stop and acknowledge that.

Painting on the ground was a cool challenge because you can't just stand back and see what you're doing.

I'm a long way from being a Damien Hirst.

I'm hoping that Abu Dhabi's first piece of street art will inspire the next generation of artists the same way that the discovery of subway art inspired me all those years ago.
