Mural captures Cambridge’s connection to water A new mural dedicated to the city’s historical connection to water, nature and learning has been unveiled at Jesus Green Lido in Cambridge. The Human Current , by London-based artist Anugrah Mishra, spans approximately 120 sq m of exterior wall, fence and rotundas of the lido. The artwork, believed to be the largest mural in Cambridge, captures the joy and energy of swimming, the movement of the human body and celebrates what the lido means to the community. The idea for the mural came from Jesus Green Lido’s assistant manager, Annabel Wright, who wanted to find a positive solution to an ongoing graffiti problem. After researching artists, she connected with Anugrah, who began his artistic journey at Anglia Ruskin University. The project was commissioned with support from Cambridge City Council.
