The World Reimagined sculpture trail news

I am excited to announce that I have been selected to design and paint a globe sculpture for this national art education project - the first of its kind in the UK.

I feel honoured to have been given the chance to take part in this project (info below) and am currently in the process of painting my globe!

Please keep an eye on my Instagram for regular updates.

‘The World Reimagined is a ground-breaking, national art education project to transform how we understand the Transatlantic Trade in Enslaved Africans and its impact on all of us.

For too long, the history of the Transatlantic Trade in Enslaved Africans has been untold, mistaught or misrepresented. In the UK, we celebrate with pride the Trade’s abolition - but the people who were enslaved and their descendants; Britain’s role in the Trade’s creation; and the Trade’s devastating legacy are usually missing from how history is told. This is not ‘Black History’, this is all of our history.

We are living in a key moment for racial justice. It calls on us to courageously face our shared history with honesty, empathy and grace.

Together, we can create a future in which all can say:

I am seen.

That is the mission of The World Reimagined.’
