On Rape and Institutional Failure
Laia Abril’s On Rape is a visualisation of the origin of gender-based stereotypes and myths, as well as the failing structures of law and order, that continue to perpetuate rape culture. Abril collates and interweaves compiled testimonies, political proclamations, historical archives, popular
and traditional beliefs, as well as society’s structural failures to deal with sexual violence.
