for our freedom years

I recently received and accepted an invitation to speak on 5 November at an exhibition entitled for our freedom years organised by two of my former students Gemma Donovan and Kerry Clark:

for our freedom years is a reaction to women's 'culture', to the idea that as women we share the same ideals, beliefs, ethos and problems, fundamentally the same identity. An identity that is expected and in many cases embraced by many females in mainstream society. We would like to invite you to give a talk at our exhibition in relation to themes addressed within the show and how they not only relate to your practice but your own positioning of yourself as a ‘modern’ woman. The event/talk can be given in any way you like, whether it be a performance or a seminar.

The the exhibition will run from 28 October to 11 November. The show will be held at Townhouse Gallery, an antique shop and gallery set within a Georgian house which we will take over. The show will also be a part of Photomonth and Time Outs First Thursdays.
