Beauty out of Ashes is an organisation that has evolved from
the campaign to get a truly transformative legacy Women’s Building built on the
former Holloway Prison site, London’s only female prison, opened in 1852 and
closed in June 2016.
This animation was made to raise awareness about the needs
of women, and to promote discussion around alternatives to the UK’s antiquated
and broken Criminal Justice System, and champion preventative support for women
at risk, as well as those in the community that require support or a place to
network.
The animation aims to show what an innovative sustainable
women’s Building might look like, to encourage fundraising and petition support
for the campaign; To bring women’s organisations together in the proposed ‘Women’s
Floor’ and ultimately for women to buy their own legacy ‘Women’s Building’.
