London Artist Jo Hicks Produces New Playful Mural for Bombay Sapphire

Pop art for London commuters.

Bombay Sapphire rounds off its art and creativity-focused campaign by employing the abilities of artist Jo Hicks for a fourth installation, creating a prominent mural in the city of London. Jo Hicks, also known as Hixxy, is recognised for work that is a playful exploration of space, color, textures and everyday objects.

Earlier this month the designs from Edinburgh artist Matt Sloe, Manchester artist Qubek and Brighton graffiti artist Aroe were unveiled, every artist using their unique styles and techniques to produce their abstract interpretation of the Bombay Sapphire bottle. Hicks’ design embodies a pop-art aesthetic, combining pastel tones of blue with Ben Day-esque dots and free-flowing circular patterns.
