Context

Since 2018, Whitney Bradshaw has been traveling across the United States with OUTCRY, a social practice project for which she leads womxn in empowering, therapeutic and community building scream sessions photographing participants mid-scream to create a collective portrait of resistance, motivate political action, and build feminist solidarity through radical empathy. OUTCRY scream sessions give women, non-binary, and genderqueer people permission and a brave place to take up space and be loud. Many participants share stories they’ve never told anyone; some scream for the first time ever. And the resulting photographs — exhibited in floor-to-ceiling grids, carried as larger-than-life portraits at protests, or mounted on billboards and projected in public spaces — present women’s unbridled self-expression without regard to society’s expectations.
