Dear Survivor (ongoing) Preview photographs featured at Photoville 2020
Dear Survivor is a growing visual collection depicting life as a survivor of sexual trauma. I am collaborating with survivors as they express their own narratives and, then, pair this work with photographs of representative imagery.
This series of diptychs will be presented with impacted community members to engage dialogue on prevention, treatment, and support. Furthermore, through a digital workbook with resources, tools, and guiding questions, I invite survivors to connect with themselves through art and their lived experiences as a way to work through their journey.
This is supported by We, Women, a movement combining photography and community engagement for larger impact. Please email rosemmorton@gmail.com for more images and for community engagement collaborations.
