If These Walls Could Talk exhibition

This event has already taken place.

Monday 17 October 2016

If These Walls Could Talk is an exhibition of work from Victoria Polytechnic Specialist Make-up students to help raise awareness of violence against women.

This exhibition will showcase the creative and talented work of our students on 24 models whose bodies will be painted into background wallpaper kindly donated by Graham & Brown.

Intimate partner violence is the most common type of violence against women, affecting 30 per cent of women worldwide, according to the 2013 World Health Organization report Global and regional estimates of violence against women: Prevalence and health effects of intimate partner violence and non-partner sexual violence .
