Comment: Does not seem to meet notability criteria for artists per WP:NARTIST; also possible COI. Netherzone (talk) 15:27, 17 December 2023 (UTC)
Zedsy is the pseudonym of an anonymous British graffiti artist who came to public attention after displaying his work at the Dismaland art exhibtion curated by Banksy.[1][2]
Career
[edit]The artist’s work serves as irreverent and satirical commentary on contemporary life and politics. In December 2022 Zedsy painted two works in Hoylake regarding the conservation debate surrounding the local beach.[3][4]
In 2022, Zedsy displayed a work titled ’Needle in a Haystack’ in the Louvre museum, a play on the elusive nature of their work.[2]
