I have become Nuffield College’s first artist in residence at Oxford University. I have been taking portraits of the Scouts, cleaners, butlers and workers from the University college halls, putting the people from behind the scenes in the picture and giving them the status of the grand paintings adorning the halls where they work. Twelve portraits have been taken and I am preparing to commence the next phase, recording the oral histories of these staff. Such amazing people with incredible life stories, I can’t wait.
