Shelter.
An understanding downpipe.
This project is about recovery after experiencing violence.
If you ever had experienced violence and had problems with sharing and getting some help it might be helpful.
There's very strong culture of victim blaming in our society. Lots of people never share their stories and keep blaming themselves just because they afraid of their family and friends being judgemental about their painful experience. That causes the second trauma and locks the circle.
In pagan cultures people used to talk to the trees. There was a belief that one could share with the tree all the troubles and get the relief that way.
There's leak of trees in our cities. Yet we still have a lot to share and we still have the need of hug and support. Let it be the downpipe - one of the most common parts of the city landscape. Plus the downpipes are victims of human sudden rage themselves.
What can you do?
You can share your story with me. I want to focus on that part where you're getting help and support. How you've found it and where? Was it your friends or some social workers or a shelter or maybe a total stranger?
You can write me a message or just record audio.
I'll record all the stories myself and I'm not gonna reveal any names if you don't want me to. But I'll be very grateful.
I have some stories already and everyone who shared with me said that the experience felt like healing. I appreciate it and I'd be glad to continue.
So please join if you feel like
