hidden route theatre company, theatre-artist Hayley Blakeman and NEoN Digital Arts Festival are collaborating on an exciting new project this Autumn. Taking Space: Digital will work with women and girls from across Dundee’s communities to creatively explore women’s safety in digital spaces. 

Through a series of creative workshops three groups will work with three artists to discuss, debate, question and create their own artistic digital provocations which will be shared with the city via striking pieces of public art as part of NEoN Digital festival in November. You will also be able to see their story on our online festival platform in the community space.
