Maltratadas (2013-2017) The project ‘Battered’ was initiated in October 2013, by me and other activist people, launching a call for a visual story in patchwork about women who are victims of violence (Eça et al, 2016). In Portugal a huge patchwork was produced with squares of cloth created by many people from different ages, genders, and social ranks. The participants of this action learned from each other in terms of emancipation. As far as they were involved in the project, they became part of a bigger community interested in exposing a social justice situation using a craft technique.
