Ellie Harrison is an artist & activist based in Glasgow (UK). On 8 January 2017, she presented The Glasgow Effect: A talk by Ellie Harrison at Glasgow Film Theatre. In 2019 she developed Bus Regulation: The Musical – a new commission for Manchester Art Gallery, and her first book The Glasgow Effect: A Tale of Class, Capitalism & Carbon Footprint was published by Luath Press. In 2020, her Early Warning Signs are installed at four ‘host venues‘ across the UK and her Vending Machine features in the 😹 LMAO exhibition exploring humour in data visualisation at the Open Data Institute in London.

"Ultimately, The Glasgow Effect was successful in fostering debate. Harrison’s commitment to reflecting on and sharing her experiences is impressive. It is clear that the artist needed to write this book to move beyond the distress she experienced" 📖 Thanks to Elinor Morgan for reviewing my book in April's Art Monthly.
