Grenfell Tower painting will hang in Downing Street which given to PM by survivors


 

 

A painting of Grenfell Tower is to be displayed in Downing Street after being presented to the Prime Minister at a meeting with survivors and families.

Theresa May spoke with a group of people affected by the fire tragedy at Number 10 on Thursday evening.

Among them was artist Damel Carayol, who lost his niece in the fire and presented the PM with a print of his painting Grenfell Tower: Eyesore!! Final Straw.

We all hope and pray that nothing like this will ever happen again.

Mr Carayol told Sky News that the painting was a painful expression of anger.

A Downing Street spokesman said the painting would go through the usual process for any artwork given to Number 10 to decide where best it fits.

Asked if it would be displayed somewhere in the building, he said: Yes, that’s my understanding.
