Jarvis Cocker by fishers

Jarvis Cocker

The area around Kelham Island in Sheffield is rich in street art, and this is an example that can bee seen from near the Kelham Island museum.

It is a portrait of Jarvis Cocker, an English musician and radio presenter. As the founder, frontman, lyricist and only consistent member of the band Pulp, he became a figurehead of the Britpop genre of the mid-1990s.

This artwork was created in 2020, and is located to the rear of the Fat Cat pub. The artist was Bubba 2000. This was the second shot that I took of the street art in the area - the second of many!

Thank you all for your lovely comments and favs, they are very much appreciated.

This area of sheffield was a real goldmine of street art. I took shots of around 12 pieces of street art, but I discovered after our trip that there is a Kelham Arts and Heritage Trail online, so now we know where there is a lot more street art to find on a future visit.

It is a very popular place, although I've never been in the Fat Cat.
