Rajkowska’s ongoing public art project, The Peterborough Child, became a new permanent work at Wysing Arts Centre with a special event to mark its launch on Saturday 20 June, 2015.

The Peterborough Child was started in 2012 and has travelled to Poland and back again and inspired both a film and a great deal of unwanted controversy. That controversy led it to remain mothballed in storage in Peterborough for nearly three years.

The work has the appearance of a staged archaeological dig; Rajkowska describes it as ‚a chakra – a place of focused, accumulated energy’. At the centre of that energy is a tiny replica skeleton of a thirty week old foetus. An emotive image, but one intended as a response to the location of Peterborough as a site of ancient graves. After nearly three years in storage, Wysing Arts Centre has been given custodianship of The Peterborough Child.
