"Jillposters was a self-funded radical feminist poster group active in
Melbourne from 1983 until 1988. I was a founding member.

I’m in the process of donating archival material and records to the RMIT Design
Archive, so I’ve had cause to reflect recently on what impressive achievements
we had for such a small and unstructured group.

We had no government funding, no management committee, no governing structure
and no workshop. The group lasted just five years. Yet we produced an amazing
range of posters and postcards, most of which are held in Australia’s national
collection."
