The figure is based on the an image of Jean McConville, one of the Disappeared. Here the figure has something of a statue from Antiquity about it. A shoe hangs as a middle Eastern sign of insult. There are elements of particular landscapes and place relating to personal history and the wider context of the Troubles.
