The World Reimagined Art Trail

I have been commissioned as one of 103 artists in the UK to exhibit a globe on this one-of-a-kind art trail. More than 100 artists will unveil globe sculptures across cities across the UK in August, highlighting “the reality and impact of the transatlantic trade in enslaved Africans”. The globes will go on show in seven locations—Birmingham, Bristol, Leeds, Leicester, Liverpool City Region, London, and Swansea (13 August-31 October)—as part of a project organised by “The World Reimagined” education organisation, which claims that the initiative “will be one of the largest art education projects for racial justice the UK has seen”. There will be 103 globe sculptures on show across the seven cities, with ten globes on show at each “art trail” highlighting nine different themes such as “The reality of being enslaved” and “Abolition & Emancipation”. The tenth globe will be designed by an artist in collaboration with community groups.
