ABOUT THE WORK
This edition is part of Making Space , a research project by Soft Fiction Projects initiated during a month-long residency at Guest Projects London, in 2019. Re-visiting theoretical research and publicly funded social projects developed by the Matrix Feminist Design Co-Operative, the project explores the origins of a community of women who squatted houses in the Hackney neighbourhood in the late 1970’s. This community had historical importance in providing opportunities, especially for queer women and single mothers, to live autonomously, connecting with wider feminist politics in London and taking control over their immediate build environment. This work is part of an ongoing research project around housing, feminism and urban change in UK and Ireland. Special thanks to Christine Wall for generously sharing her ongoing research and personal experience. Do it yourself : from Women’s Action, Belfast Women’s Collective Magazine, Volume 2, Number 2, May/June 1978.
40% from each sale will be donated to Womens Aid.

ABOUT THE ARTIST
Soft Fiction Projects is dedicated to producing digital and printed matter on film and artist moving image culture. The printed project acts as a forum for presenting new collaborations, artworks, research and writing from invited artists and contributors. Revisiting recent history in moving image practices, Soft Fiction Projects research focus is an exploration of underrepresented voices, oppositional histories, geopolitical narratives underpinned by intersectional feminist perspectives which challenge and reframe dominant hegemonic power structures.
