What happens when you turn on the light?

Week 3

Concerning my third project idea of the word campaign I have some additional ideas to fill the concept with life. The name of the project "what happens when you turn on the light" describes the dark figure of sexual assaults and rapes in the "civilized" western societies. Especially because of the happenings that took place in Germany on New Years Eve 2016 and even more afterwards - also made-up ones - there is a big discussion about "foreigners" or refugees that come to rape women just because they're not used to our "open" culture. But there has never been a big discussion about that rape, sexual assault or domestic abuse against women is taking place everyday - often trough friends, partners or family members - and that those men who now scream "keep your hands off our women" are partly the first who would grope someone in a club or worse. Often women are too afraid to report their abusers or simply just want to forget about it. That is why the awareness of these things taking place is quite low. The picture where the light has been turned on could for example show this situation in a club, or a situation at a home etc.
