A Blanket about the Lack of Visibility of Domestic Violence
In Switzerland, a woman* is murdered by a man* every two weeks on average. It is almost always a man* known to her. This blanket raises urgently needed awareness of the topic of domestic violence and encourages discussion about patriarchal power structures. A symbol of warmth and security in one’s own home, its content also reveals the contradictions and women’s* false sense of security in the seemingly safest place of all – your own home.
