Christina Feldman lives in Harlow, is originally from Finland but has lived in England for more of her life. She likes England because it is different from Finland and she enjoyed taking art classes when she first visited. She likes the idea of public art and debate about art. She is going to have a breakfast on the plinth - she had originally planned to have a cooked breakfast but was not allowed a naked flame on the plinth. She also brought some art she created and a couple of placards to answer some graffiti on the plinth. She intends to do more art when she retires from her work for a local authority helping schools with their finances. She hopes she has time to take in the scenery and interact with people. She describes herself as ordinary, she likes art, music, she has an allotment and would like to travel more.
