Over the past year, Fiona has studied Helen’s unrelenting crusade against injustice and, with friends and collaborators, Fiona has made a series of books, banners, sculptures and ceramics that respond to Helen Crawfurd’s legacy and the relevance of her critical perspectives today.

Read a blog post from Laura Matheson on meeting Helen Crawfurd through her own words and be inspired to visit this timely exhibition.
