A great pleasure to meet the hugely talented, current Fourth Plinth Artist, New York based Tschabalala Self, in conversation at Soho House Dean Street.
“Lady in Blue” is 3.5-metre (10-foot) bronze sculpture depicting a young, metropolitan Black woman striding forward with purpose. The statue was cast in bronze and patinated with vibrant lapis lazuli blue pigment, as a tribute to an everyday “everywoman” and modern Londoner, rather than a traditional historic figurehead or military commander.
If you are suffering from the blues, head to Trafalgar Square, where The Lady in Blue will raise your spirits up onto the fourth plinth until 2028.
