The Movement is a large-scale sculptural installation made in response to the polarised conditions that transformed public spaces between 2020-22: the wide berths and rising suspicion normalised at the height of the Covid-19 pandemic, and at the same time, bodies filling streets in the name of Black life, trans rights, a free Palestine and climate justice, as the UK government introduced their ‘anti-protest’ Police, Crime, Sentencing & Courts Bill.
