Description

international women's day is not about being a woman. it was established as a day of protest and resistance against social and economic power structures that deny women's labor, rights, material well-being and competence. this is not a men's war, but a people's war. whether mothers, wives, political activists or volunteers, women have suffered a lot and men should remember that without women's sacrifice there would be no such thing as struggle. this artwork tibutes to Çilem Doğan, a woman who became a symbol of Turkey’s women’s movement after killing her husband for allegedly forcing her into prostitution. was released on bail on June 20th, 2016. the ruling comes after a court in the southern province of Adana sentenced her to 15 years in jail less than two weeks ago. “will women always die? let some men die too. I killed him for my honor.” Doğan told police on July 9th, 2015. while walking to the courthouse for a medical exam on the same day. Doğan was photographed wearing a shirt reading: “Dear past, thanks for all the lessons. Dear future, I am ready.” so, happy International Women's Day to everyone who still remembers & resists.
