BOX PROJECT
FOR MY BOX PROJECT I WANTED TO FOCUS ON THE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN HOW MEN AND WOMEN'S BODIES ARE PERCEIVED BY SOCIETY AND THE MEDIA. FOR A WOMAN TO GO ROUND SHIRTLESS, IT'S SEEN AS SCANDALOUS AND CONSIDERED TO BE INDECENT. WOMEN DON'T HAVE AS MUCH FREEDOM WITH THEIR BODIES, FOR EXAMPLE HOW THEY DRESS. I HIGHLIGHTED THE FACT THAT 1 IN 5 WOMEN IN THE UK WILL BE SEXUALLY HARASSED IN THEIR LIFFETIME, AS I THINK IT HELPS TO SHOW JUST HOW MUCH WOMEN'S BODIES ARE SEXUALISED. SOME PEOPLE PLACE THE BLAME ON WOMEN FOR 'DRESSING PROVOCATIVELY' BUT I THINK THAT IT'S AN IMPORTANT LESSON THAT SOCIETY NEEDS TO TEACH TO OUR GENERATION.
