a.topos Venice is pleased to present Twice as Good, Half as Well, an online project created to raise awareness about violence against women - either physical, emotional or sexual abuse or controlling behaviors - and strengthen the fight against it.

The Covid-19 pandemic is a terrible distress humanity is struggling against, not only for the untold number of lost lives, but also for highlighting our societies weakest points. n extremely disturbing one among them is the significant increase of domestic abuse during lockdown. Women are away from their support networks, have reduced access to aid services and must constantly live with the aggressor.

Through video art and performance art pieces Twice as Good, Half as Well draws on the virtual world – and its possibility to reach a greater audience – to debate an issue deplorably felt in the flesh.

Positive that Art is a powerful form of activism, a.topos Venice will post the videos in the Collective’s social media channels in the month of July and August.
