Reimagining the Law from the Outside In
The Scottish Feminist Judgments Project (SFJP) displayed the artworks from their exhibition 'Reimagining the Law from the Outside In' in the Quad Cafe at the Edinburgh Law School as part of the Edinburgh Festival Fringe 2019.
The SFJP re-examines 16 legal judgments from a feminist perspective, exploring how the outcomes could have been different if looked at through a gender-sensitive lens. The exhibition showcased the creative responses to the project, and included: poetry by Jay Whittaker in response to the provocation by ‘sexual infidelity’ case of Drury; illustrations by Rachel Donaldson; performance art created by Sofia Nakou and Becky O’Brien in response to the Jex-Blake case; photography by Jo Spiller; and textiles by Jill Kennedy-McNeill.
