In Brazil, 1 out of 3 men believes that if a woman wears revealing clothes, she cannot complain about being raped. In order to promote debates to improve conditions for women, Estadão, one of the largest newspapers in the country, spread a message against sexual harassment during São Paulo Fashion Week.
We painted messages on models' bodies for the fashion show of Amir Slama, an important Brazilian designer. But here's one important detail: the messages only appeared in photos taken with flash.
The intention of these messages is to bring to light a fact that nobody sees: the blaming on the victim of aggressions. Phrases like "Cleavage is not an invitation", "My skirt is not a permission" and "I dress myself like I want to" were applied on different parts of the models' bodies using a special paint and a masking technique.
"I dress myself like I want to"
"My skirt is not a permission"
"Cleavage is not an invitation"
