“My work is coloured by my own experience, and my family, themselves heavily intertwined in the coal mining tradition of North West England, and its eventual politically engineered demise, which I witnessed through my early adulthood. My Grandmother was a very strong influence on my life and art. Her tales of working in this underworld, even while still carrying my father in the womb, continue to fill me with a fascination.” Vicky Wright.

Along the way, it encounters strange creatures, experiences love in the sky, grieves the loss of its beloved maker, and tries to grasp its purpose in the world.
