Violence Against Women:Unveiled
Upon this piece are 22 individual pockets depicting 30 forms of violence against women both historical and contemporary. The text is hand stitched and incorporates a small visual reference. The body of the pockets are intended to be “beautiful” individual works of art using craft materials. There are multiple reasons for this choice. Within each pocket are laminated stories from victims who suffered these acts of violence. Please reach in and read their stories so they can reach out to you. This piece is meant to be interactive. Do not allow women to remain hidden anymore.
