[DV_listserv] Art exhibit aims to bring awareness to DV

[Domestic Violence issues]

Bradley Angle [Portland] is proud to announce that we have partnered with Cat Del Buono<http://www.catdelbuono.com/> and Blue Sky Gallery<http://www.blueskygallery.org/> to bring "Voices"<http://www.voicesproject.info/> to our city.
Cat has spent the last two years interviewing domestic violence survivors at shelters in different cities and creating this project called "Voices."

The project is an installation of 20 small monitors playing videos of survivors telling their stories, but only their mouths are captured by the frame. When viewers walk into the exhibit, the multiple voices create a symphony of unrecognizable words. Only when you approach an individual monitor do you hear their personal and traumatic stories and thankfully, how they have gotten out of their situations.

The necessity of this movement on the part of viewers functions as a call to action: as a society, we must not allow the epidemic of domestic violence and those who are affected by it to remain invisible; an inaudible crowd of statistics.

This exhibit will show until July 31.
