Colourful new Dundee mural pays tribute to the original Olympia pool

© Julie Howden If anyone remembers what was on the site of V&A Dundee before Kengo Kuma’s building broke ground, then a new hand-painted billboard, measuring 10 metres wide by 3.5 metres high, will prompt some happy memories. The mural has been inspired by the original Olympia swimming pool, which stood here from 1974 until its demolition. It’s now the leisure centre at East Whale Lane. Memories of coloured bands, the café, and those flumes that took daredevils out over the Tay – and were the largest in Europe – will flood back at the thought of that building.

Submitting. The mural features Shuggie dancing in the street and a quote from the book – “You’ll not remember the city you were too wee, but there’s dancing. All kinds of dancing.” The piece was designed and made by the Cobolt Collective, comprising 2015 Glasgow School of Art graduates Erin Bradley-Scott, Chelsea Frew and Kat Loudon.
