Word selection for the women’s movement
Short fiction stories or poetic works on women’s empowerment are wanted for the book project. Let your creativity run wild. Bring historical or imaginary women to life with your narrative. Put yourself in the shoes of women, give these women a voice through your narrative.
To this end, we ask that you propose a story/route for the women to continue to empower themselves that you indicate in your text. The text should be 1-3 pages in length. You can tell us a real or imaginary story, locate a story, find a poem, find a solution, send a message, create a proposal, narrate a problem, give instructions to others to follow in your footsteps. You can even match voices, connect two distant solutions strangely linked, merge two strangers, travel through space and time, explore the past and unravel a mystery, document a performance or your own sensations as you accompany the women without a task in mind and without a precise destination, alone or accompanied shoulder to shoulder. We offer you the freedom of expression. You are free to accompany the women with your power of words. You have absolute freedom. The only condition is that you feel yourself in the role of women and then write about it. We want to find a new roadmap for hope – for the women who, out of anger and despair, cut their hair and fearlessly take to the streets.
We want to publish the book with the power of collective writing to gather the most important messages, solutions, and proposals to empower women.
We want you to submit your proposal by January 31st, 2024. The writing will be evaluated by an international Jury team and prepared for the book project. We intend to enhance the collective character of the exhibition and the book through various workshops, thus developing the submitted ideas and documenting them in an exemplary way for women from other cultural backgrounds facing the same problems.
We would be delighted if we could count on you. We look forward to hearing from you. Please do not hesitate to contact us via email writing@thinkup-editions.com with any questions.
