Illustrating for Plan B is just one of the things artist Lady Lucy gets up to - news has just reached us of her latest film project, Ladies, All The Ladies, showing at Picture This in Bristol from 26-29 November.
Lady Lucy’s film is the result of her quest for women MCs, DJs, producers and performers involved in hip-hop, drum’n'bass, garage, reggae, dancehall, r&b, house and grime from Bristol and internationally, who also use the prefix ‘Lady’. Featured ladies are Diss Miss (Dutty Girl, Girl Wonder), Laydee Bird, Lady Free, Lady K & Lady Maximum, Lady Paradox, Lady Raz, and probably a few more. Lucy O’Brien, music critic and author of She-Bop, has contributed a specially commissioned essay to accompany the exhibition.
