<div>A giant mural from Nerone has been painted on a building opposite Southampton Central train station. The piece, on front of the The Bulb, is notable in that is was created using paint which absorbs Co2.<br>Voted by the public, it is the largest wall Nerone has painted to date at 28metres high. Such was the size it would take him 16 days to complete and it coverd 1005 sq metres. It is claimed that the paint itself will support the absorption of 65kg of carbon dioxide a year. The equivalent of three grown trees as such is claims to be the largest clean air mural in the UK.</div>

<div><br>&nbsp;</div><div>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.&nbsp;<br>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. “&nbsp;<br><br></div>
