Diversity in the UK


This passport map of London is created by artist Yanko Tihov, who trained in Sofia and now works in London. Yankov has built an image of London using 32 passports of some of the foreign nationals living there.

Yankov says, "I understand how imperative it is for creative people to be able to travel where they feel safe and nourished. Having this freedom to move and travel, I believe artists push the future ahead of them
