Description/Abstract: | In 2007 I created The Smoking Suffragettes, a performance inspired by a publicity stunt intended to encourage women to smoke. The performance first took place for Rational Rec at the Bethnal Green Working Men's Club, and then again on International Womens Day at Corsica Studios and also at the Camberwell Arts Festival. It was last performed on 19 June 2007 outside the British American Tobacco Association head office in Aldwych to mark the UK smoking ban, and in the same month was broadcast on Resonance FM, screened at the Colchester Arts Centre and reviewed in Art Monthly. |
