The exhibition to be opened as part of Zero Discrimination Day approaches visibility not as a right or an achievement, but as a privilege that has historically been granted to certain bodies.
The exhibition, a product of a collective thinking process, also gives space to suppressed or deliberately rendered invisible experiences, alongside those that are visible. It revolves around the question: “Who can be naturally visible, and who must struggle to become visible?”
The content of the exhibition is nourished by individual and collective forms of resistance developed in response to everyday experiences interwoven with racism, discrimination, and patriarchal social patterns. Each exhibition space, curated by women who participated in the workshop process, addresses the experience of being a woman with multilayered identities within historically marginalized communities.
Additionally, the concept of an “invisibility strategy” is also discussed. Invisibility is considered a survival strategy developed under ongoing conditions of discrimination and oppression. The transformation of discriminatory childhood experiences into a constant state of alertness in public, the internalization of invisibility as a safety mechanism, and the fragile relationship between public visibility and belonging are among the exhibition’s main themes.
