Beskrivning
Offers an arts-based, storying, textual and visual lens on gender-based violence in the UK and Mexico.This book is a unique image-based bilingual (English and Spanish) book of textual and visual narratives of gender-based violence (GBV) in the UK and Mexico, framed with a critical commentary that sets these stories in the context of GBV in both countries.Visual and textual stories convey the 'felt' experience of GBV, engaging readers and audiences in the apparently mundane as well as the shocking. Such stories help contest the prominence of crime statistics in evidencing GBV, statistics which often distort experience and reflect and maintain exclusionary policies and practices, particularly for minoritised communities.The transnational project on which this book is based invited artists and creative writers from diverse backgrounds in the UK and Mexico to respond to lived accounts of GBV in comic stories, short stories, poems, 3D installations, fine art photography, painting and film. This book brings together these visual and textual stories and sets out a series of readings and analyses that seek to further knowledge on GBV in different cultural contexts.This book is open access under a CC BY licence.

Recensioner i media

This liberally-illustrated and well-theorised collection of stories, arising from academic-artistic research collaborations between the UK and Mexico, and told in both English and Spanish, captures experiences of gender violence ranging from the ‘apparently mundane’ to the shocking, in ways that evoke powerful emotional responses. Here is an exciting ‘trans-sensory’ methodology for others to emulate. What a feat!
