BEHIND THE ARTWORK
When Britain Found Its Swagger
The 1990s were a remarkable moment in British culture. Music, fashion, art and attitude collided to create an era that became known simply as Cool Britannia.
Inspired by the streets of Camden and the venues, magazines, artists and personalities that shaped a generation, this artwork brings together countless references celebrating one of Britain’s most creative decades. From Britpop and indie music to club culture, television, football and street fashion, every corner of the composition contains another memory waiting to be rediscovered.
Rather than documenting a single place or event, Cool Britannia captures the atmosphere of a generation that believed Britain was once again at the centre of the cultural world.
Every viewing uncovers another hidden reference, rewarding those who lived through the era while inviting new audiences to discover why it remains so influential today.
Every artwork contains hidden references. Some you’ll notice immediately. Others may take years to discover.
