Natasha Ruiz-Gomez comes from New York, America. She moved to the UK a few years ago and has been living in London for the past four months. She is an art historian specialising in late 18th-early 19th century sculpture and talks articulately about the project. At the moment she is a research fellow at the University of Essex Art Department. On the plinth she will be taking photographs as she will never have the opportunity again and for the rest of the time just stand there. She is four months pregnant. Her parents emigrated from Cuba to America. She hopes to become a British citizen.
