Jewish artist Jordan Dawson was recently picked by EA Sports over 40 other artists to help renowned boxer Anthony Joshua to design a signature football pitch.
The pitch is customised by Mr Joshua, with the help of Mr Dawson, and players of the new videogame Fifa 20 will be able to play on it. The pitch has also been built in real life in Shoreditch.
Working with Mr Joshua in his own gym, Mr Dawson told the JC he was a “down to earth guy”, who he didn’t expect to remember Mr Dawson from his previous work with Adidas. “I had met him previously, I had done a few commissions for him.
“When I turned up at the shoot, he actually remembered my name which shocked me, but he’s such a down to earth guy who is genuinely so nice.
