Filling in the Gaps, Solo Show

Filling in the Gaps is a touring series of exhibitions presenting a major portrait commission by artist Michelle Baharier for London Transport Museum, funded by Arts Council England.

The series showcases ten painted portraits of disability rights activists whose work has been instrumental in shaping access and inclusion within public transport in the UK.

This solo exhibition at Marylebone Parish Church Art Space invites visitors to reflect not only on transport access, but also on wider themes of dignity, care, and the right to move freely through society.

Baharier says: ”Let's not forget that public transport being accessible isn't just about disability. It's also about a little child in a push chair or a pram, a mother or a father with children, a grandmother. It's about older people with their shopping trolleys and walking sticks. I believe that campaigning to make transport accessible needs to be thought about widely.”
