Photographing the hidden – Violence Unseen 2 Favorite 

UK photographer Alicia Bruce collaborated with Zero Tolerance, a Scottish non-profit to end GBV, to produce a new version of the Violence Unseen campaign, launched for the first time in the 1990s and created by Franki Raffles. The new one was launched in 2018, 25 years after the original iconic Zero Tolerance campaign, shot by the late Franki Raffles. Curated into a mobile and online photography exhibition, Bruce’s work aimed to explore and contest the lack of recognition and understanding of GBV in British society, highlighting that all women and girls can be subject to abuse. To produce the photographs, Bruce worked with a diverse group of women to ensure the work captured and represented – through its settings, gestures and iconography – their experiences, identities and daily lives.
The photographer said, "This series of photographs shows that men’s violence against women is not a private domestic matter, it’s a human rights issue. Women are attacked verbally, physically, professionally at all levels, in person and online, both directly and indirectly. Ending violence against women should be everyone’s priority. Complacency on this issue is an endorsement of the unacceptable status quo."
