Sojourner, available at SVW_ART, tells a powerful story of resilience and transformation. This contemporary piece captures the revitalization of a nation’s transport system following the devastations of World War II, through intricate references to London’s landscape and the iconic South London bus route to Brixton. It poignantly highlights the pivotal moment in 1966, when the color bar was lifted, celebrating those who arrived on the Windrush. Embedded within, you'll find the symbolism of the Lignum Vitae, the Jamaican national flower, a nod to the artisit's heritage, adding rich cultural depth. Netting the piece together are footprints denoting the impact of the disapora culture. The red '&' echos the iconic london routemaster, while acknowledging that the story hasn't ended.

 

Embrace this art’s historic narrative and bring a piece of post-war recovery and cultural integration into your home.
