Britain Retold is a body of work which reveals individual perspectives on British identity and how it is perceived within the country's most international, rapidly changing city, London.

The exhibit will consist of intimate portraits that incorporate the symbolism of the celebrated yet challenging subject of the Union Jack.

Britain Retold seeks to open a platform that allows the multi communities in London to begin

redefining what it means to be British, moving toward being wholly inclusive and allowing new

associations to exist alongside tradition.

Sara has previously discussed the series at Tate Britain, The Apple Store Regent street and Syracuse University and it has had the series featured in BBC online, Dazed Digital and Volt Cafe among other media.

The Exhibition will continue from 24th October to 7th November 2014 and can be viewed in the Lower Ground Gallery at Fox Court by appointment.
