Windrush monument

In search of lunch today on my way to Dorset I came across this beautiful artwork at Waterloo station. Made by Basil Watson and unveiled in June 2022, it seems to my eyes to be a powerful and celebratory portrait of a family ready to build a new life in the UK. I’d like to know what Cruella Braverman thinks of it. Or then again maybe not.

Basil Watson “I am inspired by the heroic in mankind, and am moved to express the vitality, beauty, grace and strength of the human figure in its varied shapes, sizes, abilities and functions. The spirit that motivates it is limitless in its grandeur”.

I’m very behind on your journals but will catch up!
