“I’m delighted to receive funding from Culture Liverpool and UK Shared Prosperity which enabled me to create and exhibit this new sculpture to mark Black History Month. My new recycled paper sculpture titled ‘Celebration’ features a life size figure wearing a robe adorned with a roll call of names acknowledging just some of the many black people who have contributed so much to Liverpool, from Abell the first recorded black citizen, through to modern day community leaders. The artwork is my homage to Liverpool’s black community.”

View the new sculpture throughout Black History Month at Central Library, Liverpool.
