For me, for her, for you

For me, for her, for you was created in response to the National Trust’s ‘Women & Power’ series – a year long programme marking the 100 year anniversary of the passing of the Representation of the People Act (votes for women) and the long struggle for women’s suffrage.

The work has been shaped with the involvement of members of the public, National Trust volunteers and women based within the South West who we researched through the process of making the work.  

We invited members of the public to contribute to the project by ringing a dedicated phone line and leaving messages about women (those who identify as women or non binary) who have inspired them, who go against the grain or who don’t accept the status quo. Alongside these responses, we researched and identified women in Plymouth (where we are based) and the wider South West region, who in different ways make a positive impact in their community and work to change the world for people who come after them. Interviews with some of the women we contacted, alongside the collected phone messages, form the content for this new audio work.

The work also features new sound work by Neil Rose, and three new commissioned songs by singer-songwriters selected by LOW PROFILE for this project through an open call. Cordelia O’ Driscoll, Holly Kirkby and Suck My Culture (Amy, Lizz & Georgia) (all based within the South West) have each written a new ‘protest song’ in response to the project and their own experiences of identifying with the ongoing campaign for women’s rights.
