Jupiter Artland founder and director Nicky Wilson stated: “These two women bring their power of observation and relentlessly confessional instincts to site their work in a most compelling medium themselves.
“This talk is not about women and shame, it’s an exploration about shameful, proud women that transmute shame into observations that resonate with us all.
“Mendick does not shy away from confession and mess as she presents unflinching observations of the power of drink – it’s fun and it’s optimism alongside the messiness and regret that it also inflicts.”
