Ever wonder what life will be like after you graduate?
This installation provides a tangible response to one of our culture's most pervasive rape myths.
Outfits featured have been recreated from the stories of student-survivors. If only ending sexual violence was as easy as changing our clothes, instead it requires all of us to evaluate what enabled us as individuals and as a society to ask, "what were you wearing?" in the first place.
This installation is a part of Consent Week 2020 and presented in partnership with the Sexual Assault Support Centre.
