Graham Robson June 19, 2023

Mexican artist Teresa Margolles will be casting 850 plaster casts from the faces of transgender, gender non-conforming, and non-binary people, which will be placed on the 4th Plinth in Trafalgar Square as a show of resilience and humanity from TNBI migrant communities.

If you are interested in meeting the artist and discussing their work, they will be at Micro Rainbow, the first safe house in the UK dedicated solely to LGBTQ+ asylum seekers and refugees, on Friday, June 30 from 3pm.

If you are interested in having your face cast and being part of the installation, you will be paid for your time as well as being represented in Trafalgar Square.

All identifiable features can be blocked if you so wish. It is up to you if you want to be named or not.

This is a once in a lifetime opportunity. The casting is an opportunity for transgender, gender non-conforming and non-binary people seekers, refugees and migrants only.
