Post-Perspectival Art and Politics in Post-Brexit Britain: (Towards a Holistic Relativism)

This article responds to the Brexit vote and forms the first of what is now a series of articles written for Third Text's Online supplement analysing, from an empirical standpoint and using imaginative interpretations of experiences in the life on an artist and writer, to understand the post-Brexit landscape of culturally divided Britain and its possible trajectory and future. Personal anecdote mixes with reference to a major work by artist Mark Wallinger, in search of a personal view that contributes, from a fine art perspective, with the aim of creating better understanding of Britain's cultural complexity.
