Healing through the lens of survivors:
A PhotoVoice Project
PhotoVoice empowers people to share their experiences through digital storytelling. In this project women captured photographs using a phone or camera, that represented their experiences of healing. The photographs were professionally printed and exhibited in Creative Hearts Art Gallery throughout Sexual Violence Awareness Month (October 2024).
This project was generously funded by the Investing In Qld Women grants program | Office of Women.

CHARLENE
The writings accompanying Charlene's set of photographs were part of a longer poem.
The poem may not be suitable for some readers. It outlines the writer’s raw account of trauma and healing, including descriptions of abuse and violence. This may be confronting.
