Book - Standing In This Place presents Speak Her Name
Whilst our sculpture gives representation to the under-represented, giving voice and recognition to the contributions of thousands of unnamed women connected through cotton, we wanted to showcase historic named women within Speak Her Name.
Artists Rachel Carter, Anisha Parmar & Ismail Khokon have delivered a range of creative workshops at ArtCore, Derby, reflecting the global cotton story, and the Swadeshi movement that swept across South Asia, and celebrating the resistance, suffering and successes of women that has shaped our shared histories. This community-led publication has been wonderful to work on as both the artists and participants have really gotten to know each of our 100 historic women a little better as we have delved into their stories.
