According to statistics, 1 in 3 women will be violently abused in their lifetime, that is one billion women worldwide. I am. Interrupted is a collection of enthusiastic and humanitarian artists working in collaboration with One Billion Rising who have joined force to speak out against this injustice.
Using emotive means in response to these facts, the collection of work on show demonstrates what is in the heart of each of us. We recognize art as the most powerful and effective means of not only expression but of revolutionary change. I am. Interrupted’s goal is to undertake the challenge of engaging the audience with a subject that is sometimes considered taboo, such as domestic violence. Despite each artist emerging from a variety of backgrounds we have found a common language grounded in the fundamentals of liberty – freedom of expression and freedom of speech. Come rise with I am. Interrupted. |
Doodlebar / Testbed1TESTBED1 is a dramatic and versatile arts and events space for creative innovation, ideas and experimentation, next door to The Doodle Bar where people can enjoy a good scribble, have a drink and hook up with some fellow doodlers.
