Over the past three months I have been working on the Revisions research project a collaboration between The Victoria and Albert Museum and Fast Forward: Women in Photography. The project investigates the representation of women photographers within the V&A photography collection.

The V&A photography collection is one of the oldest and most significant photography collections in the world and holds 800,000 photographs.
I have had the pleasure of working with Fiona Rogers the Parasol Foundation Curator of Women in Photography as well as the photography team who have been incredibly generous in welcoming me to the V&A and answering all of my many questions.

As part of this research I had the joy of gathering contextual information about the collection from interviews with Martin Barnes, Marta Weiss, Zorian Clayton, Ella Ravilious, Erika Lederman, Mark Haworth Booth, and Fiona Rogers. I also collected and analysed available data on the collection.

You can now learn more about this project by heading over to the Fast Forward: Women in Photography website.
