Cottage Grove Primary School 

Form and Function

<div>The artwork has been created by Alex Godwin, who works under the moniker Billy, in collaboration with Form and Function, a local art studio. The idea was developed by working with over 200 local people, including year five students from Cottage Grove Primary School, and local traders.<br><br></div><div>The design is based on photographs taken by students at Cottage Grove Primary School. The local community then used these photographs to create a set of collages from which the artwork draws inspiration.<br><br></div>

<div>Out the back of Fratton Park football stadium is a glorious display of some of Portsmouth finest street artists. These days you will mostly find large scale graff work up on the walls but it is worth a look as there is a lot of work up here. I am still trying to work out who some of the artists are but those I know I have tagged. If you know any of the others let me know and I will edit the post.</div>

Berk MLC

<div>What must be one of the most unusual street art walking tours includes work by Mydogsighs, Fark, Berk MLC and NZIE. Overlooking the model village is a life size piece by Mydogsighs but on the walls of the village itself, all at 1/12th scale are the really interesting pieces. If you do the walk then get a quiz sheet from the entrance vendor and look for all the things listed while also spotting the street art. Lets hope more artists get involved with bringing street art to the world of the little people.<br>- @mydogsighs<br>- @farkfk<br>- @NZIEgram<br>- @Berkmidlifecrisis<br>- <a href="https://www.southseamodelvillage.biz/">https://www.southseamodelvillage.biz/</a></div>

<div>Around the back of the Queens Hotel, from the garden you can view a number of pieces by Fark (@farkfk), Roo Abrook (@rooabrook) and others.

<div>This independent chain of restaurants features the artwork of local street artists inside and out. The walls are bare brick and industrial fittings. The tables and lockers are lit with neon and hanging light bulbs; local artwork is splashed across the walls and ceiling whilst the industrial sauce dispenser fits perfectly alongside the custom bar.
