Abstract :
The LIK:T Young lesbian and Bisexual Women’s
Project have done a substantial piece of work looking
at role models and aspirations of young lesbians
and bisexual women through art.
The aim of the project was to try and break
down isolation, and to raise the aspirations of
young lesbian and bisexual (LB) women, as often
as a group, LB women have a hidden history/
herstory
The work was done over a number of months,
including a consultation event in Manchester with
lesbian and bisexual women across the generations;
a research trip to the Glasgow Women’s
Library (and their Lesbian Archive); and a number
of pieces put together at other events around the
country by our roving reporters/photographers.
The exhibit created includes six posters
designed by the young women involved, and a
photo collection of lesbian and bisexual women
from across the generations, with accompanying
interviews about their loves, lives and everything.
