“I was inspired to choose the historic Pump Room in Bath for 2 reasons. Firstly, it is an iconic part of the Bath cityscape and secondly it features in Jane Austen’s novels Northanger Abbey and Persuasion. 17th July 2017 marks the 200th year anniversary of Jane Austen’s death, a perfect reason for me to make a piece of art that celebrates her work, her links to Bath and the city itself.”
