The swimmer bears a tattoo showing a classic Japanese Carp shown on a bed of chips and newspaper with a Japanese wave-style splash of vinegar on top.
The sculpture remains in Potters Fields Park till Sunday 23 September. It's one of two sculptures that have been created as part of a promotional campaign for the Discovery Channel's new London Ink series featuring celebrity tattoo artist Louis Malloy.
