Hear Now, 2023. UCL East. Permanent. 2023.  
→UCL East 

Commissioned by UCL Public Art. Delivered with Setworks Ltd and Lifschutz Davidson Sandilands.This is a permanent public artwork for the main entrance of UCL East in Stratford. Hear Now gives a visual shout-out to the working class women of the East London Federation of Suffragettes (ELFS). Established in 1914, the ELFS amplified their voices to win all women the vote in 1928. From 1918, only women aged over 30 with property rights could vote. Working class women remained excluded. Due to high levels of illiteracy in east London, the ELFS realised speech was vital to their cause. Led by Sylvia Pankhurst, they offered public speaking lessons so women could project their voices in protest. Hear Now captures the duality of life for the ELFS women, moving daily between domestic and political roles. Hart imagines their constant switching of tools; putting down a frying pan and picking up a megaphone.   Originally made in clay by Hart, the oversized pans and loudhailers were cast in GRP sustainable fibreglass.
