Every woman deserves a shed of her own, somewhere to retreat to for some quiet time, to create or grow, to write or paint or just to contemplate the garden. Gill Heriz has interviewed over 70 different women, and Nicolette Hallett has photographed their sheds inside and out, to collect together this unique insight into why women have sheds, and what they do in them. There are sheds for puppet-makers, sculptors and writers, as well as farmers, furniture-makers and woodcutters. There are sheds that can be lived in, sheds that are full to the rafters and sheds that hold the usual collection of gardening tools, lawnmowers and seed packets. Virginia Woolf once argued that, for women, writing required ‘a room of one’s own’. These women have taken that idea a step further – to the bottom of the garden – to find their own personal space.
Gill Heriz is an artist and writer who was once an interior designer and has a passion for architecture and design. She is also self-confessedly nosy and loves nothing more than exploring other people’s houses. Her interest in women’s sheds was first sparked by some fine examples in her local area, and now extends across the world. Her current shed is a studio built from old flint, where she can work, create and relax. The author is based in Suffolk. Nicolette Hallett went from painting at art school to photography college and a 30-year career behind the lens. Working in an observational style, she has shot everything from stone masons to stately homes. She has an ‘off the peg’ shed, which is her painting studio in summer. The photographer is based in Suffolk, UK.
