Nicole Farhi is a household name as a fashion designer, having helped found French Connection with Stephen Marks before setting up her eponymous fashion and homeware brand with a popular concept store at 202 Westbourne Grove. Now she’s turned her back on fashion to sculpt and has a new exhibition, J’Accuse, at Pitzhanger Manor in Ealing. It comprises 24 of her signature small painted busts, of people incarcerated or executed for crimes they did not commit. She talks to Charlotte Metcalf about the travesties of justice which inspired J’Accuse and why she abandoned fashion for sculpture. She describes her upbringing in Nice and her time working in fashion before talking about her life now and her marriage to the playwright David Hare.

There will be a discussion between Nicole Farhi and Matthew Foot, APPEAL’s Co-Director and criminal defence solicitor at Pitzhanger Gallery on 1 May
