Joy Gregory: Fierce and Fearless - Whitechapel Gallery


Joy Gregory, Fierce and Fearless, 2022, Photography by William Morris Gallery, London Borough of Waltham Forest / Nicola Tree

Fierce and Fearless is a textile installation celebrating women as central figures in folklore, myth and legend. Printed and embroidered panels form an immersive tent, illustrated with stories of fearless female protagonists and offering a hub for participatory activities throughout the season. Step inside, join an activity, create new stories.

Fierce and Fierce will host school and university groups, and sessions led by local charities and community groups, including the British Bilingual Poetry Collective, 3EIB, Xenia. The installation’s fabric is the inspiration for a collective embroidery project led by artist Jasmin Bhanji in Assembly Room during the half-term holidays (29 October-2 November).
