I feel… satisfied, discriminated, abused

women.index, a par­ti­ci­pa­tory pro­ject that explo­res how women feel, has been set up in Zagreb

On International Women’s Day 2024, a new ite­ra­ti­on of the par­ti­ci­pa­tory pro­ject women.index was laun­c­hed in Zagreb. After pre­vi­ous edi­ti­ons in Split, Naples, Belgrade, and Ljubljana, the pro­ject retur­ns to the Croatian con­text thro­ugh a seri­es of acti­vi­ti­es inclu­ding public citylig­ht pos­ters, radio seg­ments, a digi­tal cam­pa­ign, and dis­cur­si­ve pro­grams in col­la­bo­ra­ti­on with the Zagreb City Museum and the Museum of Contemporary Art.

As in ear­li­er ver­si­ons, women are anonymo­us­ly invi­ted to answer the ques­ti­on “How do I feel?”, cho­osing betwe­en three opti­ons — sati­sfi­ed, dis­cri­mi­na­ted, or abu­sed — col­lec­ti­vely cre­ating a por­tra­it of women’s soci­al reality today.
