Linda Cassels

Linda Cassels was born in South Africa and educated in 1970. She came to the UK as a migrant worker and after 30 years in the health sector, she decided to change direction and retrain as an artist at Sheffield Hallam University.

Cassels’ work focuses on history, retelling stories in a manner that is true and objective to her lived experience. Issues pertaining to the black female body and how it was portrayed in history is a subject that she has explored through the media of photography, performance, language, and the object.
