SUMMARY:Reframing the Visual Depiction of Women and Sexual Violence in Sout
 hasia
DESCRIPTION:Fear\, intimidation\, objectification and victims are the predo
 minant themes in images used to depict sexual violence against women in th
 e media. Can you visualise images that are more empowering\, more nuanced\
 , that show women in all their complexity\, that show resilience and resis
 tance? Be a part of challenging and changing this visual discourse\n\nCome
 \, share your talent\, share your vision in this workshop facilitated by t
 he Hri Institute for Southasian Research in conjunction to their project C
 hallenging Visual Depiction of Women and Sexual Violence in Southasia whic
 h aims to challenge gender insensitive visual and aural depiction of sexua
 l violence against women in Southasia. \n\nThanks to robust women’s mov
 ements in the region\, the rising incidents and brutality of incidents of 
 sexual violence has been met with strong protests and demands for accounta
 bility. Considerable strides forward have been made to improve media repor
 ting of sexual violence\, making it less sensational\, more based on women
 ’s lived experiences\, gender-sensitive and ethical. However\, images th
 at accompany news-reports tend to remain stereotypical and even damaging b
 y reinforcing stigma\, helplessness\, shame and victim-blaming. Join this 
 workshop and learn to create a more empowering and compassionate visual na
 rrative.\n\nSelected works (sketches\, paintings\, cartoons\, photos) will
  be showcased on the website of the Hri Institute as part of the pool of s
 tock images that exists.
