The metaphor highlights the cyclical nature of abuse, where each act chips away at the soul of the survivor. With an exhibit, workshop and in-person discussions, this project by Sujata Setia attempts to move outward from the social context to investigate the politics of abuse and coercive control. Each portrait features physical cuts, reflecting past trauma and the process of reclaiming power. The patterns that emerge on the portraits symbolise both submission and resistance, forming an internal dialogue for the survivor and a conversation with the viewer. Based on interviews with 21 South Asian women, which is ongoing, this photographic study captures the emotional processes that accompany the first public revelation of their private realities. Please note that “A Thousand Cuts” includes potentially triggering and/or sensitive material. After the workshop and panel discussion, there will be a sharing circle for those who would like to stay back to ask questions or decompress. A mental health professional will facilitate the sharing circle.
