Banksy (aka Robin Gunningham) is a graffiti artist in England. He uses stencilling currently as a means to quickly make his art.
Since graffiti by its nature is illegal in most countries, his vivid and impressive art is ephemeral in nature.
It appears that his statements in media are strident and forceful and he has become a legend in his native country.
People say they have seen Banksy at work and he does videos of himself talking with all his main features covered (like eyes, nose, hair, mouth).
This is so he doesn't get into trouble and be put in jail or pay a fine.

Banksy's identity has not been confirmed as of September of 2021. One theory: he is Damien Hirst's alter-ego. Others believe the Artist is a collaborative (DryBreadZ, DBZ) or a comic book artist Jamie Hewlitt. London's Mail identified Banksy as Robin Gunningham, from Bristol in the UK. (published 9-26-21). A study in 2016 correlated Robin Gunningham's movements with Banksy's art appearing. Former classmates and associates have corroborated the article. None of these claims has been proven, yet. It is in Banksy's best interests to protect his identity, it all feeds into creating his Brand. Referenced from an article in ArtLife, "How Does Banksy Stay Anonymous?".
