This week Gary Mansfield speaks to Nathan, the Father of Background Bob (@background_bob)
Background Bob is a severely disabled young lad, that just so happened to make hundreds of new friends during lockdown, by collaborating with some of the biggest names on the Street Art scene. Before long he had artists from all over the World contacting him asking him to join in.
He hand-painted 250 cardboard backgrounds to be transformed into new collaborative artworks by his new friends. Background Bob, his family and friends have now created a book titled Background Bob & His Amazing Friends containing images of each collaboration and are selling them with all proceeds going to the local Hospital that has always cared for him.
