SLUT WALK

Written by Emily Stephens (she/her) for The Rising Womxn Zine


TRIGGER WARNING: Rape, sexual assault, abuse


Jojo Lewis (she/her) is a multimedia artist, unapologetically challenging and confronting the western patriarchal society. From mocking the absurdity of patriarchy, with its power status, to highlighting important issues; Jojo's practice reflects her ongoing journey of becoming a feminist activist. Echoing back to the viewer a more direct, louder version of society, Jojo provokes conversations on the oppression of women and minorities. She wishes to empower others, raising the voices of those who may not be heard to powerful and public spaces, such as gallery walls. Jojo also wish to empower and create positive impacts on society through her artwork.

In 2018, police were looking for a man wanted over rape in a local park. This park was notorious for these crimes. ‘Slut Walk’ 2018, was a performance piece in response to this and a protest against rape culture and victim blaming.
