Freedom of Movement II
Commissioned by Tate Moderron's community team and Better Bankside for "FROM THE OTHERSIDE" project.
Public art installation Freedom of Movement II, The large poster installing as protest, explores the ‘right to travel as a human rights concept, encompassing the right of individuals to travel from place to place within the territory of a country, and to leave the country and return to it’. The document is autobiographical and recognisable. The bird is spotlighted as a symbol for freedom, as well as referencing landscapes that know no borders.
The building at 180 Borough High Street - which now houses Fora workspace - occupies what was until recently the site of the Overseas Visitors Records Office where 'foreign nationals' registered with the police, and that in a building on the site before that Marcus Garvey once rented a room.
