‘What Were You Wearing?’ Survivor Art Installation

11 a.m. to 7 p.m., April 8 – 10  

Nebraska East Union, Garden Room  

 

An art exhibit that asks participants to understand that it is never about the clothing when sexual violence occurs, this display will show representations of outfits worn during assaults with accompanying stories from sexual violence survivors. Inspired by the poem “What I Was Wearing” by Dr. Mary Simmerling, the project intends to shed light on the burden of self-blame brought forth by the victim-blaming question that is pervasive for most survivors and shatter the myth that sexual violence can be attributed to a person’s choice in clothing.
