Pothole Art: Jim Bachor’s Treats In The Streets

WORDS Lindi Brownell Meiring

Last year, US mosaic artist Jim Bachor took to the streets of Chicago and Jyväskylä in Finland to cover up potholes with colourful mosaics of ice-creams.

This clever project, which you can browse in the gallery above, was aptly titled “Treats In The Streets”. We can’t wait to see what he does in 2016! Follow Jim on Instagram to keep up to date with his latest endeavours.

“THIS IS NOT A POTHOLE (anymore)” in situ at Michigan Avenue and Ohio in downtown Chicago. Nailed it! Gonna try and install a few more pieces before it gets too cold. Stay tuned! #bachor #jimbachor #treatsinthestreets #2015potholeartinstallations #fanciestpothole #ifnotmethenwho #thisisnotapothole
