Evaluation: “In our culture there is no place for a women”

“In our culture there is no place for a women”

Through our research, we discovered that in Asian countries feminism is known as a taboo subject and has not been well recognised nation wide.After some idea development, we decided to find some resourceful ideas online such as Wikipedia to develop our ideas of Asian feminism . However, doing this did not feel as though we were creating an authentic, innovative piece of instillation, so we decided to be ambitious, going a step further and finding real Asian feminist groups.Using actual resources such as the feminist library, Gabies mother and Facebook groups in Asia gave the piece a much more authentic feel, and helped us to better achieve what we originally set out to do – to highlight feminism in Asian culture, In addition, this also increased the enjoyment of the instillation making process for us as a group, as we felt a stronger connection to the topic and an excitement to see the results of our experiment.Through our instillation piece we were pleased with the idea of the mobile,Bed and posters and how they all complemented each  other to represent our key topic of Asian feminism however we felt that some of the elements were not needed within the piece. Inaddtion we were really pleased to rearranged the projection on to the bed however the audience weren't able to sleep on the bed and all of there focus was on that element.But I believed that the projection looked really effective on the bed and it stood out.

Overall we feel our project has achieved what we intended it to and it is effective in providing an insight into the world of Asian feminism.

History

According to Chaudhuri, unlike the Western feminist movement, India's movement  was initiated by men , and later joined by women. But feminism as an initiative by women started independently a little later in Maharashtra by pioneering advocates of women's rights and education,  Savitribai Phule , who started the first school for girls in India, Tarabai Shinde  who wrote India's first feminist text, and  Pandita Ramabai  who criticized patriarchy and caste-system in Hinduism, married outside her caste and converted to Christianity. The efforts of Bengali reformers included abolishing sati, which was a widow's death by burning on her husband's funeral pyre,  abolishing the custom of child marriage, abolishing the disfiguring of widows, introducing the marriage of upper caste  Hindu  widows, promoting women's education, obtaining legal rights for women to own property, and requiring the law to acknowledge women's status by granting them basic rights ...

Draft Of statement of Intent

During my childhood, I always went to the Gurdwara to pray, meditate and learn. The Gurdwara has become a huge attachment to my life. Hence through photography I want to create a virtual tour highlighting the Gurdwaras History, space and place through various items, objects, rooms, individuals ect. A Gurdwara is a place of worship for Sikhs. People from all faiths, and those who do not profess any faith, are welcomed in Sikh Gurdwaras. Three main functions are carried out in all public Gurdwaras. One is Kirtan which is the singing of hymns from the Guru Granth Sahib, another is Katha which is reading of the Guru Granth Sahib and explanations. The third main function which is carried out at every Gurdwara is the Langar, free community kitchen for all visitors of all religions. Along with these main functions Gurdwaras around the world also serve the Sikh community in many other ways including, libraries of Sikh literature, schools to teach children Gurmukhi and the Sikh scriptures and c...
