About The Artwork

One hundred Swimmers standing in the gala pool at Moseley Road Baths in Birmingham, July 2014. The swimmers are standing against the announced closure of the facility, one of the oldest Edwardian pools in the UK. After this photo was taken, and thanks to the untired efforts of the local community, the closure was delayed several times. In 2016, the World Monument Fund included the Moseley Baths in their watch list, giving them access to £1 Million for emergency repairs. In 2020, the roof repairs were concluded making futher refurbishment operations possible. The resilience and cohesion of the Moseley Road Baths community is being rewarded. A light of hope shines on the future of this heritage building and its people. UPADATE: This photo was the winner of Portrait of Humanity 2020. Was sent in to the Space and translated in a binary code in order to be trasmitted to other civilizations. The 100 Swimmers has been included on the vol. 2 of Portrait of Humanity book.
