A socially engaged research project funded by the Violence, Abuse and Mental Health Network and UKRI at Newcastle University led by feminist academic Dr Tina Sikka and artist Lady Kitt, with producer Sarah Li and research assistant Emma Atkinson.
Collaborating with Newcastle university students through a series of art and research workshops (during Autumn 2022) to discuss Tina's research on consent and sexual ethics through the lens of gender, race, class, sexuality, and disability.
The creative methodologies used in this project are based on Kitt’s Arts Council England and AHRC funded research project “enSHRINE”*, which explores the use of collaborative art making in policy & organisational development. enSHRINE | ladykitt (lladykitt.com)

Navigating the installation and access info
This virtual tour works similarly to Google Maps. You can use the cursor to “click and drag” in order to change your view of the space.
You might find it beneficial to make the installation full screen. You can do this by clicking the three dots in the top right hand corner of the exhibition and selecting the ‘fullscreen’ option.
Mobile users may find it useful to orient their screens to landscape for the best viewing experience.
Click or tap the white arrows to move around the space from one room / section to another.
Click or tap on the white icons in each scene for extra content including videos, photographs, making instructions and more information about specific characters made as part of the project. These icons usually look like a white ‘i’ in a circle.
You can view subtitles to videos that appear in the exhibition. To do this please hover the curser over the video at the bottom right hand side (near to the play and pause button). A text box reading ‘subtitles/closed captions’ should appear. Please click this box and the subtitles should appear automatically.
Viewers using the Safari browser may experience issues when scrolling some of the hotspots. If you encounter this issue we recommend using an alternative browser.
