Tapestry Colour Studies: Alberta Whittle, Ring Around the Rosy I

Commissioned by The Modern Institute for Whittle's 2023 exhibition Even in the most beautiful place in the world, our breath can falter, the work encompasses both a sense of childhood joy and a haunted quality – the nursery rhyme is widely understood to reference the Great Plague of London. The piece sits on a new gate, powder coated in municipal green, which references the Caribbean built environment as well as the architecture of incar.
