Banksy, the British street artist, has in recent years become a global phenomenon. His satirical takes on life, sprayed onto public walls using aerosol paint, combined with his anonymity, have created an aura which has seen work of his sell for hundreds of thousands of pounds. What is less well known, however, is that Banksy also left his mark on the African continent during a visit to Mali. This Flickr page is well worth spending a few minutes browsing through and includes some amusing looks at Western perceptions of Africa.
