Street artist Endless is behind a striking new mural stretching across the entire side of the Indelible Fine Art building on Jew Street, Brighton. The mural appeared last weekend.
Endless isn’t just any street artist, his work has graced the walls of the Uffizi Gallery in Florence, been featured at the Venice Biennale, and counts iconic duo Gilbert & George among his fans. His pieces can sell for up to £40,000.

The unveiling of the mural coincided with the launch of Endless’s latest exhibition at Indelible Fine Art, which runs until early September. Inside, visitors can see 16 of his signature “crotch grab” works, a provocative motif inspired in part by the famous 1992 Calvin Klein campaign shot by Herb Ritts and starring Mark Wahlberg. Sizes range from 82 x 119cm to 90 x 131cm, with prices starting at £4,000.
One of the highlights of the show is an original “Crotch Grab” piece, valued at £40,000, which Gilbert & George showcased internationally. This Brighton exhibition also marks ten years of collaboration between Endless and the legendary art duo.
Gilbert & George said: “Endless’s provocative and radical approach to art and modern society is the reason we’d spotted his Crotch Grab artwork on the streets and wanted to collaborate with him. His art very much complements the ethos behind our own, which is to communicate a vision of the world that is raw, truthful and direct.”
While most artists simply print and sign limited editions, Endless takes it further, hand-painting each piece in his runs of 25, making every one a true original.
Daniel Marsh from Indelible Fine Art added: “The crotch grab, in all its forms, is ultimately about control. Whether it’s a goddess averting her gaze, a model asserting their dominance, or an artist mocking branding culture, the gesture speaks to how the body is viewed, claimed, and charged with meaning.”
Endless, a London-based artist and Cambridge School of Art graduate, fuses street and contemporary techniques to explore society’s obsession with brands, celebrity, and consumer culture. His works — from murals to hand-painted limited editions — have appeared everywhere from Liberty London’s windows to the prestigious Uffizi Gallery. Collaborating with icons like Gilbert & George and Karl Lagerfeld, Endless continues to create bold, thought-provoking art that blurs the line between street and gallery.
