Samson Kambalu's post-colonial sculpture Antelope was unveiled on Wednesday as the new sculpture on the empty Fourth Plinth of London's Trafalgar Square.

The bronze resin sculpture features Baptist preacher and educator John Chilembwe, who led an uprising in 1915 against British colonial rule in Nyasaland - now Malawi.
