Sheroes–Revoluciones is an art project designed to draw attention to violence against women*
Sheroes–Revoluciones aims to visualise this social issue, using the arts to express, reflect, prevent and heal involving different social agents.
As a warm up for the exhibition, we are compiling a list of articles and papers about violence against women and girls.
