<x-tad-smaller>While</x-tad-smaller><x-tad-smaller> WHITTLE</x-tad-smaller><x-tad-smaller> was born in Barbados, a former British colony, she has spent most of her adult life in Scotland. Feeling on unstable ground between two cultures, migration and exile are recurring themes in her work. “Britain has become a temporary self-imposed exile, where I float amidst the flotsam and jetsam of immigrants who clutter the coastline of British society” she states. Within the context of May 24th, Empire Day, </x-tad-smaller><x-tad-smaller>WHITTLE</x-tad-smaller><x-tad-smaller> will create an installation, which opens up a dialogue investigating British national identity, further exploring the notion of diversity versus solidarity.
