The story of this work

Overview

In 2010, Sadie Hennessy created *Emergency* as part of the Jealous Print Studio Graduate Prize, an initiative established in 2009 to award one MA Fine Art graduate from each of eight major London art colleges a residency and the opportunity to produce a limited-edition print. The resulting works, including Hennessy’s, were exhibited together in a group show and later donated to the V&A print collection.
