Sturgeon

Hand and machine embroidery on cotton, 47.5 X 33.5 cm, 2018 This piece is a response to Brexit and how the North of Ireland and Scotland said no. Nicola Sturgeon is a Scottish politician who is the current First Minister of Scotland and leader of the Scottish National Party (SNP), who is a key person to include in my collection. A main issue with Brexit is what will happen to the Scotland if they leave the single market. I collaged letters to form key quotes by Sturgeon, taken from recent newspapers, this is to represent how we read and hear about the on going Brexit negotiations.
