Banksy has created a graffiti version of Steve Jobs outside Calais refugee camp

This is the latest work from street artist Banksy, who has taken on the migrant crisis in a new mural at a refugee camp in France.

The elusive graffiti artist has depicted the late Apple guru Steve Jobs – whose biological father was from Syria – carrying a black rubbish bag and an early model of the Macintosh computer.

Jobs was adopted. His biographer, Walter Isaacson, has described the computer genius’s biological father, Abdulfattah Jandali, as a graduate student who came from a prominent family and studied in the US.

Bristol-based Banksy, best known for his subversive street art, has never disclosed his identity. His publicist, Jo Brooks, has confirmed that the work found at The Jungle encampment in Calais is genuine.

Pictures of the artwork have also been included on his website.

Banksy has travelled the world to comment on war, child poverty and the environment.

The Jobs artwork is not Banksy’s only connection with Calais. Since his counter-theme park Dismaland – which was open this summer in Weston-super-Mare and billed as a Bemusement Park – was dismantled, it has been shipped to The Jungle where it has been repurposed.

A dozen homes, a community area and a children’s play park have been created from the surplus materials by the “leftover crew” in a project dubbed Dismal Aid.
