Notes

Sharon Hepburn was born in Orpington, Kent but moved abroad and now lives in Canada. She went to Jesus College in Cambridge after a mysterious benefactor paid for her university fees. She did a degree in art and anthropology. On the plinth she is just going to stand there (with a photograph of her parents who used to bring her to Trafalgar Square). She will be contemplating about life and grateful for her existence. She had a hard life, her father dying from MS when she was 10 years. She teaches courses at university about death and appreciation of other human beings. The course is called 'Culture and Mortality'.
