The life-sized wax figure of #VirginiaWoolf in #KingsCollegeLondon watches every passing student. Armed with a copy of her seminal #Feminist book #ARoomOfOnesOwn she guards the atrium where women once needed permission to enter. Her lingering stare is haunting, it’s as if she is measuring how far we've come - a reminder to every scholar that: This space is yours now! #KCLWoman

Young #VirginiaWoolf entered #KingsCollegeLondon in 1897, when women studied in the shadow of men. Now her name shines on the #VirginiaWoolfBuilding. I touch the cool stone walls she once passed & imagine her hurried steps. Her portrait watches as I move through gates that once barred her. This building is proof that courage builds doors where walls once stood. #KCLWoman
