This is the story of the Waiting List. There are nearly 175,000 applications on the allotment waiting list in Britain. An artist collective led by JC Niala developed an artwork that represents this waiting list, took it to the government and then used it to reclaim land from Tesco and the industrial food system.
The Waiting List by DR JC Niala, Julia Utreras and Sam Skinner of Fig.Studio https://fig.studio/projects/the-waiting-list/ produced in collaboration with Greenpeace as part of the Bad Taste project.
