  Caglar Gezer, Switzerland

Political confrontations and cultural clashes have become an
integral part of daily life in Turkey, and way too often, the
battleground is women’s bodies. Men of all political persuasions
feel free to treat women as an object and to lecture them on how
to dress and how to live. This work is a critic on societies
positioning the believes on top of fundamental freedoms.
