Semester Projet

For my semester project I have created a tumblr blog that focuses on sexual assault and domestic abuse towards women. My main focus was to prove the voice that women now have today and to show victims that they are not alone. My blog shows how women artists such as Caroline Rothstein and Ana Mendieta take their own personal experiences of assault/abuse and brought them to life through their art. I also incorporated artists like Yoko Ono, Nan Goldin and Maria Abromovic that have their own takes on feminism and this power over women.

Furthermore, I found viral campaigns (No More, Me Too) and art exhibits (Resist)  that show how these issues are being acted upon by the media today. I found other posts within tumblr that I also chose to share to my blog. I have included many different medias; I included photographs, videos, exhibits, links and more to really intrigue my audience and to get them to focus on the issues. My hope is for this blog to really raise awareness around the issues women are facing on assault and abuse. As well as for people to understand the importance behind the media platforms and how their art can make a difference.
