Francesca Saxon, artist and loyal citizen of the
nation, is thrilled when she receives a commission to design the central mural
of an epic new swimming pool: the jewel in the crown for an insecure regime
obsessed by propaganda. Leaving the comfort of her coastal hometown for the lap
of luxury of the capital, she is swept up in the paranoia of a government
threatened by underground revolutionaries, whose promise of a freer, happier
future looks increasingly appealing. Torn between rival factions and her
personal loyalties, she realises that when ideology has a stranglehold on art,
the picture is rarely pretty.
Addresses urgently relevant questions in our world of
increasingly destabilized politics Albon trades in his colored pencils for a
haunting, dystopian palette of watercolors
