Artist Statement

This piece continues Sue Stone’s Grimsby Girl’s World Tour series with a stopover in Madrid. Born in 1913 Muriel was not able to travel during her lifetime and had very few opportunities in life to pursue her artistic and musical interests. She left school aged 13 and was apprenticed to a tailor. It was a hard life with no recognition of her skill as a seamstress. She loved singing and was a talented contralto. Here in another life, alongside her best friend she travels to Madrid to study music and theatre.
