Location: Clapham Common


Since the first Urban Games in Clapham Common Chu has painted the welcome banner. Each year you walk through the gates and if you're not amazed by some of the amazing physical activities, you can be watching works by illustrators and graffiti artists.

These canvases were painted bare-foot under a marquee, flat on the floor. Visual references are made to the disciplines synonymous with Urban Games; deejaying, breakdancing, bmx, skating and graffiti (including a bit of a self-portrait on one of them).

For 4 years Chu also painted on the allocated areas for around 40 invited graffiti artists at each Games.
