With Ministry of Defence, UK
The real faces behind MoD
Exhibited
The UK Ministry of Defence Data and Digital department commissioned Sane Seven to create an internal exhibition for senior leadership and key stakeholders. The brief was to create work that could open a serious conversation about women, identity, and institutional change.
Sane photographed the women who run the British military, from General Dame Sharon Nesmith down to officers starting out — each of them twice, in uniform and out of it.
Side by side, the two portraits look like two different women. They’re the same one. How she looks tells you nothing about what she commands — which was the point, shown to a room of generals.
