Case Study: Forest Green Rovers Murals
After the success of our initial apparel clothing collaborations with Forest Green Rovers, we're hyped to have been able to take our artwork off fabrics and onto walls around the New Lawn stadium.
The first mural project we've done for the World's Greenest Football Club, was helping them turn a temporary club shop cabin, into a thing of beauty. Our concept was based around the landscape around the New Lawn stadium, where wildflowers and wild grass grow everywhere, all providing a thriving landscape for local nature to thrive. Our concept was for nature to reclaim the man made the environment, and with that, we worked with AnyForty regular, and the first artist you contact when it comes to floral spray painted murals, Philth!
Over the course of a week, we painted two floral murals, one on each side of the cabin, alongside a cheeky Green Jack, on the gates to the stadium. So much fun and it's been great seeing the reactions to fans on match days.
Watch this space as we update this case study as our collaborations continue into the new seasons and beyond!
