Giving victims of sexual violence a space to be heard through #bukansalahkamek exhibition


One of the four areas in the #bukansalahkamek exhibition was a 'bedroom' where testimonies of women and girls who experienced trauma in relationships and marriage were displayed.

Her perpetrator was a student in her school – a senior – who blackmailed one of her friends to take pictures of her changing in the dormitory.

"I was unaware of everything, until K's friends called me. They directed me to a room and continued to interrogate me for everything (sic). They said they found a picture of me, in my underwear. They realised it was me. I found out that it was not only me. K had a folder of photos of naked bodies of his juniors, my own friends, that he sells to his batchmate. I was ashamed. I felt see through. I felt disgusted. Until now. There have been no retributions on K until now, (and) he has a successful life. If only people (knew) how sick in the head he is."
