She is the co-founder and director of Slut Riot, a growing platform that combines art and activism, aimed at de-stigmatising sex work through performances and art. Born and raised in the Italian countryside, she completed a master’s in Cultural Studies in New Zealand with her thesis on sex work representation, and now lives in Berlin. Her writing has been published in The New York Times and Huffpost, among other publications.Follow Edie on Socials:https://www.instagram.com/edie.montana/Check out Slut Riot:https://www.instagram.com/slvtriothttps://linktr.ee/slvtriot
