This piece left many people with their mouth dropped on twitter, she got a lot of support from twitter with more the 125k shares and 300k+ likes.

She wants to use this Gallery as a form to invite artist and put an end to the silence and shame of the stories of sexual abuse.

This video explains how it does not matter what you are wearing to get sexually abused. A lot of people think that if you dress a certain way that you are calling for attention and that you are more likely to get sexually assaulted. It does matter what you are wearing you can still get assaulted.

This video is about an initiative, “Welcome Them”, that Congo artists have started because they feel like not enough is being done to stop physical and sexual abuse of women.

Mónica Mayer, Mexican Artists, has her own experience of sexually abuse. She had first experience with sexual assault when she was an eight-year-old girl walking through a Mexican town with her mother a few steps ahead of her. As Mayer was reading a comic book, a man in his 30s approached. Mayer states,“He touched my ‘pussy’, as your president would say, I was shocked but I am even more shocked this is a common experience.”
