- Based on this fact, we want to realize a social experiment towards violence against women. This experiment is going to take place in three different areas of Tirana at the same time: Bllok, Artificial Lake, Pazari i Ri. These places were intentionally sampled, since they are considered the most frequented areas in Tirana by all ages and categories. In each of this areas will be placed a woman’s mannequin with different outfits. One of those will represent a woman in career, the other one will be dressed as “sex worker”, and the last one will be a middle-aged mother. Over their clothing there will be written a statement to undress the women and to find out more. Inside of their clothing there will be written their story of violence. The specific objective of this activity is to explore the reaction of the citizens on women’s violence story. At the same time we want to raise awareness on the fact that violence can affect every woman, despite of their outfit and their appearance.
