Those who speak but are not heard

Coordinated and supported by the Encompass Network, Inside Outside is a project which aims to amplify the voices of women who are, or have been, involved in the sex industry in Scotland. These are voices not often heard in the mainstream press, and often drowned out on social media.

Women took part in recorded conversations with Linda Thompson from the Women's Support Project and worked with Kathryn Rattray, a Dundee based photographer, to illustrate their stories with digital photographs.  

The exhibition has so far received a very positive response. After going to the SNP conference in Aberdeen, it opened to the public in studio 11 in Dundee, where it is still open on display.
