I will also write BLM on top of all the signs in the style of Wallinger

In this final piece, I have aimed to incorporate all techniques and styles from my artist research and media studies leading to the result. I have decided to use mark Wallinger's ‘State Britain’ and ‘Where There's Muck’ pieces to inspire how I wanted to display my work. This is due to the fact Wallinger uses protest signs in his art. My main inspiration for the layout was ‘Where There's Muck’ with the overlapping panels and spray-paint writing.
