    • We'll have Elizabeth as the lion and then Dudley and all the other people, the plots against her, crawling towards her trying to grab for her. This is the culmination of the chaos that was encased around her. I was really interested in places like the Acropolis where the sculptures were in fragments and I'm imagining all of these sculptures to be fragments of the past. I want the installation to feel as though it's a masquerade ball but then also a point of metamorphosis. I think there's a point in every party that I've been to when it tips, when they say nothing good goes on after 12 o'clock. This point that we become more animalistic, drinking, the hedonism, everything makes us into the creatures that we never hoped to be in everyday life. A lot of the female protagonists are the hunted, deer, foxes. A lot of the male protagonists are the dogs or the pigs. So we've done Elizabeth as this lion, the lion that she saw that she was, kind of maybe to tear herself away from her own femininity. We've taken inspiration from the rainbow portrait, considering this is meant to be the pinnacle of a hunt or also like the game of chess and checkmate. We chose that one because they had this great symbolism all over it of eyes and ears, which was sort of nodding to her massive network of spies who were protecting her and the way that she saw and heard everything. And that was why she was able to reign in the way that she did. We're doing Robert Dudley as the bear because on his coat of arms there was also, he was always the bear and you can see it throughout Kenilworth. We're actually transforming
