• Horse Sculptures and ‘Everywoman’<br />

to Adorn London’s Iconic Fourth Plinth<br />

Two art works will be erected on the<br />

fourth plinth of Trafalgar Square, a<br />

hollow, life-sized person on a horse cast<br />

in a slime-green resin and a bronze<br />

sculpture honouring a woman of colour.<br />

Tschabalala Self and Andra Ursuța's<br />

pieces were chosen from a short list that<br />

also included pieces by Veronica Ryan,<br />

Thomas J. Price, Gabriel Chaile, Chila<br />

Kumari Singh Burman, and Ruth Ewan.<br />

The idea of Self's Lady in Blue, scheduled<br />

for installation in 2026, was to introduce<br />

a modern "everywoman" to Trafalgar<br />

Square.<br />

Lapis lazuli blue, a pigment that has<br />

been used since antiquity in North Africa,<br />

the Middle East, and Europe, including<br />

by artists like Titian and Vermeer, will be<br />

applied on the bronze sculpture.<br />
