Giant new artwork – Justice for Sheku Bayoh – at Edinburgh’s Usher Hall joins the rapidly expanding Mural Trail as Scotland’s artists and arts organisations combine their voices to support Black Lives Matter.
Scotland’s Black Lives Matter Mural Trail is expanding rapidly. The addition this week of 5 new artworks at Edinburgh’s Usher Hall takes the total to 24 (across Edinburgh, Glasgow and Inverness) with over a dozen more planned in the coming weeks, in Stirling and Dundee, as well as Glasgow and Edinburgh.
The latest additions are by Kirkcaldy artist Abigail Mills aka Abz (picture below with Sheku Bayoh’s sister) including an impressive 5.5 metre x 6.5 metre print on the Usher Hall’s Glass Wing, and a further 4 images next to Lothian Road. Striking, colourful and thought provoking, Abz’s work reflects her regular job as a tattoo artist, but goes far beyond that, reflecting her Scottish/Jamaican heritage and self identifcation as a “queer artist”.
The Glass Wing artwork – Justice for Sheku Bayoh – is inspired by the death in 2015, in police custody in Kirkcaldy, of Sheku Bayoh (now the subject of a recently announced public enquiry).

COVID 19 UPDATE:
Sadly, due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, all live tours and performances are cancelled/postponed throughout 2020. Hopefully they will be able to restart in 2021. Meanwhile, I am working with my clients to develop alternative, safe and innovative ways to get their work out in the world, including continuing to release new music and art, online performances etc.
This is such a difficult time for everyone, but especially for the whole professional creative ecosystem, where we are all interconnected – artists, venues, promoters, agents, tour managers and FOH staff, not to mention the printers (and all the people who put up the posters), press, photographers, record labels… the list is enormous. And of course, the audiences too.
Please take care, be kind to each other, stay safe, and hopefully we can all meet again on the other side.
