This scene has been partially erased by artist Paul Scott and replaced by his screen print, showing the damaged buildings of war-torn Gaza in 2021. Scott intends for the plate to highlight the plight of Gaza’s Palestinian population, under siege and experiencing ongoing blockades and an increasing death toll. This plate is typical of Scott’s practice, which utilises the process of printing on ceramics to respond to political and environmental issues. In the past, Scott’s work has encompassed topics including the transatlantic slave trade, modern human trafficking and fracking, as well as the declining cultural heritage of the ceramics industry in Staffordshire. This is one a small series of works that uses screen prints made in response to the Israeli invasion of Gaza in the Summer of 2014. In light of the ongoing political situation in Gaza as of 2021, Scott has revisited this theme and produced a small series of new works, including this plate. reference term-109891 adlib-term-109891 ad6efeb2-90e2-3107-ada3-8348ed09c40f 21st Century, Early reference term-106993 adlib-term-106993 1d66fa9e-0484-36d5-9258-f975cb74a4e5 literal England England country Cumbria reference term-107658 adlib-term-107658 824d3ecf-92c1-33aa-8d45-2f0239317270 literal England England country Staffordshire reference term-42861 adlib-term-42861 5b368285-f1a8-3dcf-a5b2-637fd3c3956c earthenware Diameter cm 19.2 Height cm 2 reference term-34935 adlib-term-34935 b6750733-fe79-33fc-b39a-c296fcd223b4 plate reference term-91574 adlib-term-91574 a0b5f0e9-604a-3ba6-b03a-9870f9ec2748 dessert plate history note Paul Scott, Blencogo, Cumbria, from whom purchased with the Friends of the Fitzwilliam Museum Fund. reference agent-149638 adlib-agent-149638 7376d833-d0a7-3be0-916e-9c892b7a24d8 The Fitzwilliam Museum
