The Big Lesbian Tampon Machine

What is the Archive?

The Women Who Love Women Archive is an ongoing art project where women who love women can submit their names to be included in a piece of artwork.

I draw real names from real women into illustrations set inside queer spaces like lesbian bars and bathrooms. Every name in the artwork has been sent in by somebody from somewhere in the world

The project is helping to create a recorded history of women who love women through art, because queer history is often forgotten, hidden or never written down in the first place.
