Ah neh rape photoshoot, u like?
An honorable member of the Coffee Shop Has Just Posted the Following:
Indian Fashion Shoot Depicts Rape: WTF? The photographer claims he's 'raising awareness' but the outcry suggests his point hasn't been well made A little over a year ago a horrific rape and murder took place on a bus in Delhi, and now a series of photos has been released showing an Indian woman on a bus fending off aggressive-looking men - dressed in high couture and in full make up. Though the photographer, Raj Shetye, claims the concept was dreamed up two years ago and only recently realised, the similarities between the scene depicted and the terrible reality are hard to ignore.  Shetye told BuzzFeed: "The aim is to create art that will gather some reaction in society. “The message I would like to give is that it doesn’t matter who the girl is. “It doesn’t depend on which class she belonged in — it can happen to anyone.” These pictures come just a few months after Italian Vogue decided to run a fashion shoot based around domestic violence, with fashion models dressing up in top designer clothing while recreating scenes of extreme violence from the movies. Plus on a slightly different angle, we had the Vice photoshoot recreating the suicides of famous women in tasteless detail. Just what is it that artists find so beautiful about women subjected to violence?  Sheyte has said that this shoot wasn't for commercial gain and for that reason no brand names or fashion labels have been credited. But the huge swathes of criticism he's received, and the fact that he's been asked to explain himself, suggest that his 'message' doesn't seem to have made it across. Instead people inside India and around the world are disgusted by the obvious parallels to the Nirbhaya case (the name given as a pseudonym to the victim in the Delhi rape). But Sheyte is just pleased to have got people talking. https://uk.lifestyle.yahoo.com/blogs...162536365.html Click here to view the whole thread at www.sammyboy.com.
