I decided to curate artworks within the boundaries of my old constituency. It was a lot of fun, and I discovered works (and museums!) I never knew existed. The paintings and sculptures are all part of the history, from former MPs to recently commissioned surrealist art. This is such a fun thing to do!

Artists featured in this Curation: Timothy Shutter (b.1954), Gerrit van Honthorst (c.1590–1592–1656), Tom Weaver (d.c.1998), Christopher Charles Golds (b.1936), unknown artist, Michie Herbert, Francis Vingoe (1879–1940), Steve Geliot (b.1962), Victor of Hohenlohe-Langenburg ('Count Gleichen') (1833–1891), Louis William Desanges (1822–1906), and 7 more See all
