Join Alexia as she discusses her artistic process, and her thoughts on the symbolism throughout this vibrant image. Set in an 18th century English doctor's surgery, the stunning portrait features Dr. Edward Jenner inoculating James Phipps, the first person to receive the smallpox vaccine.
I’m delighted to have worked with Alexia Sinclair again and have my music appear in this video for Alexia’s tableau of Edward Jenner for ’The Art of Saving a Life’, commissioned by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation.
’The Art of Saving a Life’ is an initiative that combines art and public health to raise awareness and funding to vaccinate millions of children in developing countries.
The campaign is a collection of stories on the success of vaccines throughout history, told by over 30 world-renowned artists.
