Bubba 2000

Bubba 2000 has been exhibiting his spray-painted celebrity portraits of Amy Winehouse, Johnny Rotten and Jarvis Cocker on the unsuspecting walls of Sheffield since 1995. His career started back in the mid 90’s initially, as an illustrator for comic book publications before moving on to storyboards and then to street art. Swapping concrete for canvas, Bubba held his first solo London show – Persons Of Interest – in 2020, with a print of Jarvis Cocker signed by the Pulp singer in aid of Sheffield Children’s Hospital selling out immediately.

In October 2024, Bubba returned to Sheffield to host his Home-Coming show, unveiling a new, hand painted, highly textured technique, and teaming up with Stephen Graham for a charity print.
