Victim Shame, Body Blame was on exhibit at ChaShaMa Matawan in 2020. 

This exhibition is an analysis of American rape culture, and how patriarchal society impacts both men and women’s perception of sexual violence, and how we react towards victims and their perpetrators. 

Victim Shame, Body Blame evaluates this cultural history through sculptural interpretations, using varying structural elements, from frailer materials, including, textiles and paper, to more durable mediums, such as plaster, and audio elements and text.

Sculptural torsos, stitched with red thread, address trauma and survival in the aftermath of gendered violence. The work reveals how the body becomes a site of memory and resistance.
