The Care in Your Gaze: Cultivating Respectful Looking
This interdisciplinary project investigates the sexualizing gaze—a form of visual attention that reduces a person to sexualized body parts and intrudes on intimate space. By combining artistic practice with social research, it explores strategies to cultivate a culture of respectful looking across diverse cultural contexts. The project will produce a transdisciplinary work corpus, including an online publication, a wearable fashion line, and a workshop program, all designed to foster respectful looking in everyday life.
