Besides being a multi-instrumentalist, ๐ท๐ฑ has complemented her musical career with sculpture, painting, photography, poetry and sometimes acting. Among the artists she has collaborated with are ๐ต๐๐๐ ๐ช๐๐๐, ๐ป๐๐ ๐๐๐๐ (๐น๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐ ), ๐ฉ๐๐̈๐๐, ๐ฑ๐๐๐ ๐ฏ๐๐๐๐ (๐ธ๐๐๐๐๐ ๐ถ๐ ๐ป๐๐ ๐บ๐๐๐๐ ๐จ๐๐) and ๐ฑ๐๐๐ ๐ท๐๐๐๐๐, former member of ๐จ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐ซ๐๐๐๐๐๐ and whom she has referred to as her "๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐" as she has continued collaborating with him ever since.
Her great talent has been recognised with several awards throughout her career, including being the only artist to have won the ๐ด๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐ท๐๐๐๐ twice. She also was named a ๐ด๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐ ๐๐๐ ๐ถ๐๐ ๐๐ ๐๐ ๐๐๐ ๐ฉ๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐ฌ๐๐๐๐๐ (๐ด๐ฉ๐ฌ) by ๐ธ๐๐๐๐ ๐ฌ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐ฐ๐ฐ in the ๐ฉ๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐ ๐ฏ๐๐๐๐๐๐ in June 2013 for her services to music and the following year, she was awarded an ๐ฏ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐ซ๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐ ๐ด๐๐๐๐ by ๐ฎ๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐ผ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐ ๐ณ๐๐๐ ๐๐.

As I wrote at the beginning of this post, ๐ท๐ฑ ๐ฏ๐๐๐๐๐ is one of the artists ๐ฉ๐๐๐๐ ๐ด๐๐๐๐ admires most along with ๐บ๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐. ๐ท๐ฑ's music has marked him so deeply that it has influenced not only ๐ท๐๐๐๐๐๐'s sound but also his songwriting, as he expressed it in the quotes below:

๐ค "Music is about expressing things you can’t in everyday life. A lot of what has pushed me forward is desire and I have expressed that in my songwriting – perhaps because it’s safer! I’ve always found music that is carnal very attractive but not in the most obvious way. [...] A lot of Polly Harvey’s early work was tapped into a sense of yearning and desire which I understood.”

In the article "๐บ๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐ ๐๐๐๐" published in ๐ฒ๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐ด๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ in June 2006, ๐ฉ๐๐๐๐ mentioned the song "๐บ๐๐๐๐๐-๐ต๐-๐ฎ๐๐" from ๐ท๐ฑ ๐ฏ๐๐๐๐๐'s first album "๐ซ๐๐", revealing that
๐ค "Steve[Hewitt, drums] introduced me to PJ Harvey when we were at university. Her songwriting instantly became a big influence on me. I was struck by how individual her voice was and then by how taut and nervous the instrumentation was. It was so expressive of internal torment, desire, lust and rejection. She’s always been very brave, she’s not afraid to make a record that sounds like someone bleeding on you."
A few years ago, in another rather similar article published by ๐ต๐ด๐ฌ ๐ด๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ in October 2017 called "๐บ๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐ ๐ถ๐ ๐ด๐ ๐ณ๐๐๐", ๐ฉ๐๐๐๐ again mentioned this song as "๐ป๐๐ ๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐ ๐ ๐๐ ๐๐๐๐ ๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐".

In 2001, ๐ฉ๐๐๐๐ dedicated to her ๐ท๐๐๐๐๐๐'s song "๐ณ๐๐๐๐๐ ๐ด๐" during their performance at the ๐น๐๐๐ ๐พ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐ญ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ in Belgium.

That same year, a few months earlier, the paths of ๐ท๐ฑ ๐ฏ๐๐๐๐๐ and ๐ท๐๐๐๐๐๐ crossed and they eventually met, as they both headlined Australia's ๐ฉ๐๐ ๐ซ๐๐ ๐ถ๐๐ ๐ญ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐. ๐บ๐๐๐๐๐ ๐ถ๐๐๐ ๐๐ wrote some great memories of those days.☀️

✒️ Me, Steve and Bill feel like death warmed up and moan all the way to Sydney. We invite PJ Harvey and her band to come on a Sydney harbour cruise organised by Virgin. They accept and we spend a beautiful evening seeing the sunset behind the Opera house. Fruit bats fly above us and we can see people walk the arch of the Sydney bridge. If I thought the tower in Tokyo was bad, that walk would definitely bring on my heart attack. I can hardly string a sentence together and go to bed. Bri's over the moon as he got a chance to properly talk to Polly and feels there is a connection. Maybe time to ask about a duet? He goes for dinner with Mick Harvey and some of the PJ crew.
The hotel's in Coogee bay just by the beach and the temp is around 35 all week. Inevitable sunburns.
Ah yes, ๐ฉ๐๐๐๐ has always wanted to do a collaboration with ๐ท๐ฑ ๐ฏ๐๐๐๐๐. I still have hopes that one day his dream will come true. ๐ค๐ That would be completely awesome! ๐คฉ

๐ค Well, no, she's one of my favorite singers so I think I would need to have the guts to ask her, you know? (Laughs)".
