It was in my childhood, and my dads an artist, so it just naturally made its way.
But yeah, they reached out, and I was 100% up for it.
It felt like the perfect match there.
What is the biggest inspiration for this project?I’ve always enjoyed capturing that movement.
Its kind of capturing their energy and getting that down.
And then also, really delving into depicting all of these different cities throughout Europe.
It was that was actually really exciting challenging, but really exciting.
Theyll definitely be able to tell their city, which I think is really nice.
There’s so much design that goes into it, which is why I love it.
I grew up really enjoying football memorabilia as well.
So yeah, I really enjoy that link between between football and art.
The installation is up in Trafalgar Square.
To be able to see my work in Trafalgar Square alone is just incredible.
The installation definitely reflects the multi-sensory experience that football is.
Gosh, couldn’t see Fernard Leger, Joan Mitchell, Wladimir Burliuk, Matisse, and Kandinsky.
They’re all so different.
Because especially being in the art world, it can be incredibly competitive.
So mentally, being able to stay on top that way is really, really helpful.
But also, metaphorically; constantly trying to move my work forward.
Whether that’s through exploring different mediums and practising new techniques and styles, but moving forward.
That’s a really good tip.
I feel like I really, really pushed myself in this project in every aspect of it.
And the team cared and wanted the best outcome of this.
But theres lot coming up this year, and quite a bit in sport, as well as food.
So yeah, quite exciting!
