SI Question:

My work explores the systems, laws and customs that contribute to the high levels of rape within India. My pieces explore how victims are typically blamed, shamed and considered ruined. I also explore how advocacy could improve this situation.

Strengths:

Pos/Neg Space - silhouettes - using this to show an emptiness or something that is missing. large neg space, dwarfs the subject and sets up a power hierarchy. How can you push this farther?

Context clues - Ganges, flag, foods, fabric, patterns...

contrast/ spot lights / limited lighting. How can light/ shadow be used as a metaphor

Materials/ Processes:

sari fabric, rubbings of jewelry, cultural connections to shame/ honor that are female

hands, fingerprint pigments from dance (altha)

maps/ river/ govt docs/ articles/ yearbook photos/ girls schools

mirrors (reflections)
