Unfortunately there is still a lot of homophobia widespread in the world, and one of the most prominent places this exists is within the football culture. I was delighted to paint this mural in Southampton to further the awareness surrounding this issue. We helped the Saints put Southampton LGBTQ+ population and the city of Southampton at its heart, by asking players, fans and the people of Southampton to pledge their name in support for a more inclusive future for football. The brief to build awareness and ‘change the game for good’ came from its client Southampton Football Club in partnership with its official kit supplier, Hummel, and features a range of LGBQT+ colours and the first 100 pledged names. “
