Raising Horizons

Photographer Leonora Saunders approached TrowelBlazers to create a touring portrait exhibition featuring present-day women in Archaeology and the Earth Sciences posing as their historic pioneering counterparts.

Rebecca collaborated closely with Leonora on the selection of the women past and present,  portrait props and costume, wrote the text for the exhibition catalogue, managed a successful crowdfund and project logistics including a two-year tour visiting eight venues.

​

In 2018 the exhibition was invited for a special showing at the UK Houses of Parliament, in celebration of the centenary of Women's Suffrage.
