About

V&A Wedgwood Collection and Culture& presents new artwork by Jacqueline Bishop alongside an exciting series of free live events.
A new ceramic artwork, The Keeper of All The Secrets, created by international multimedia artist Jacqueline Bishop, will open on 23rd August at the V&A Wedgwood Collection. The compelling art installation explores the 'Market Woman', a recognisable yet overlooked figure in Caribbean society since the time of slavery.

Culture& and V&A Wedgwood Collection are offering a series of vibrant free events, including talks, poetry, afternoon tea, clay workshops, and activities for young people exploring Staffordshire's histories of slavery and abolition.

The themes illustrated in Jacqueline Bishop's new ceramic work are pertinent to reflecting on Staffordshire's colonial connections, particularly since the exhibition launches on UNESCO's International Day for the Remembrance of the Slave Trade and its Abolition.

23rd August - 6th September
