Adam Dant's ambitious drawing "900 Years in 900 Stories" presents a modern day view of the hospital, populated with people and stories from the long history of Barts to the present day - material collected by the artist through research in the NHS Barts Health Archives, through interviews with Barts staff and via a special public appeal to the wider Barts community.

"Being asked by Barts Heritage to produce their special commemorative 900 anniversary artwork is a proper privilege. As an artist, I relish nothing more than a chance to nose around the city's more unusual archives, connecting the strange anecdotes of our forebears with who we are now and whats important to use today as a society." Adam Dant
