Topher Campbell's Tate Commission at Risk of Destruction

A sculpture by artist Topher Campbell, commissioned by Tate Modern, faces destruction if a new home is not found by the end of October.

The sculpture, My Body Is An Archive, was part of the exhibition My ruckus at Tate Modern, which aimed to create a space for Black Queer expression and creativity.
