Liberated Voices: Exhibition at the National Justice Museum

My classmates and I helped to design and create an exhibition with the National Justice Museum, which opens to the public today!

I responded to the Force-feeding equipment used on suffragettes from 1910-1918. I made a short film, and wrote about perspectives from activists & authority. I also wrote about Lady Constance Lytton, who was force-fed by the equipment on display at Walton Gaol, Liverpool.

The exhibition tells five stories of women in the justice system – from police officers, suffragettes, and more – in response to objects from the museum archives, using text and our own short films.

Getting to see all of our hard work, over the past 12 weeks, come together into the exhibition has been a dream come true, and hopefully the first of many to come!!

Liberated Voices: Stories of Women In-Justice is a free exhibition, running from the 6th of April to the 9th of June.
