The woman’s name is Charlotte Marsh who was a suffragette organiser during that time. Knowing the context of the photo adds another dimension to the meaning of the image as while it is a beautiful moment, it also makes a strong political stance. This photo signifies the efforts of the women of our past who had to fight for a right as simple to vote. Personally, this image makes me very grateful for the strength of the women in this time as if it was not for them, then I would not be able to vote and have the rights I have today. This image is also very inspiring as it makes me want to continue the legacy that these women were fighting for. There are still so many fields in which women are underrepresented, photography being one of them. Images such as these make it seem worth it to continue to fight for the representation and equal rights of women in our time today. It is inspiring that a single image can be so powerful that it evokes motivation from the year of 1910 and still to this day in 2023. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6271b6f64a54ec7f8af6ad47/bcf5196e-773b-4bec-b5e3-e6e54acc11a6/Screenshot+2023-08-07+at+10.46.46.png Blog - The Representation of Women Through Photography - Make it stand out Photographer: Lizzie Sadin This image comes from a project that the French photographer, Lizzie Sadin did to raise awareness about domestic violence in France. The project is called “Is This How Women Live?” and she aims to invoke emotion in people through her images to raise awareness about the women that have and continue to experience domestic violence. Her photos are quite captivating as she captures raw moments of vulnerability. The images make me emotional as it is sad to think that so many women live in fear. Home is not a place of comfort for these women but rather, it is a place associated with fear and anger. Lizzie acknowledges that these photos may come off as disturbing but her goal was to capture the moments that are rarely seen. She wants to fight against the veil of silence that these women live behind. The discussion of issues such as domestic violence is extremely important because most people do not realise the amount of women that go through these types of experiences. Photography is a powerful medium for raising awareness as images can immediately trigger emotion in a way that resonates more with some compared to a lengthy block of text. Sometimes the only way to create change is to show people what is happening in reality by capturing those moments that are normally silenced. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6271b6f64a54ec7f8af6ad47/cb827b23-5270-49a5-982a-07ee9b9dee1a/Screenshot+2023-08-07+at+10.50.49.png Blog - The Representation of Women Through Photography - Make it stand out Photographer: Gisèle Freund A letter to Frida: How is it that you radiate both confidence and humbleness? Your gaze intensely focuses on something in the distance as if you’re a lion stalking its prey but you clench onto your arm with a hand filled with jewels to give you comfort. Your feminine energy is transparent in every photograph taken of you. There is no effort needed as your lived experiences speak for themselves. You showed no fear in standing up for yourself and you made sure to never be shadowed by a man. Despite the hardship you had gone through with your injury, you prevailed in pursuing your passion for painting and you never let that hold you back in anything that you did. Whether you are dressed in jewels with your hair pulled back or in linen pants and a T-shirt with your hair flowing in the breeze, you come to life in an image and invite us viewers to experience the world through the same eyes as yours. You are an inspiration to women. The images of you tell a story of resilience and I aspire to be a woman as confident and passionate as you. Thank you Frida. Thank you for giving me inspiration through your story. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6271b6f64a54ec7f8af6ad47/cc9d4141-bd32-4f17-bfb0-9557662071eb/Screenshot+2023-08-07+at+10.52.36.png Blog - The Representation of Women Through Photography - Make it stand out Photographer: Tuija Lindström https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6271b6f64a54ec7f8af6ad47/7f6b7dcd-252b-437e-a1ac-8de9adb78429/Screenshot+2023-08-07+at+10.54.52.png Blog - The Representation of Women Through Photography - Make it stand out Photographer: Jacklyn Halaburda This is a photo that I took of Latisha who I met while strolling the many booths set up in the Spitalfields market in London. This image was inspired by the German-American artist, Evelyn Hofer as she takes black and white images that show people doing things that they do on a daily basis. I wanted to capture Latisha in her booth where she sells vintage and up-cycled clothing. It is important to highlight the careers of women and this image shows the pride that Latisha has for the clothes that she has sourced and up-cycled. I wanted this photo to be light hearted and fun. I wanted it to be a representation of a woman who is passionate and happy about her career. I wanted people to ask: “do I know women who are happy with what they do? Am I happy with what I do?”. This photograph is meant to inspire people to follow their passions and to invite them to reflect upon what they currently do compared to what they aspire to do. Through Evelyn Hofer’s photographs, you can identify the people that appear happy and the ones that are bored or miserable. It is quite interesting to see these photographs as everyone is shown doing what they do everyday however, they all reflect different emotions in the state of their routine. https://www.jacklynhalaburda.com/blog/the-internal-nervous-system-of-the-heart-your-heart-has-a-mind-of-its-own monthly 0.5 2022-05-24 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6271b6f64a54ec7f8af6ad47/130d19d6-7673-4049-bbc1-0e4c9d216611/Untitled_Artwork.jpg Blog - The Internal Nervous System of the Heart: Your Heart Has a Mind of its Own - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6271b6f64a54ec7f8af6ad47/4313c66d-88ec-419e-a3eb-187999751fff/Nervous.jpeg Blog - The Internal Nervous System of the Heart: Your Heart Has a Mind of its Own - Make it stand out (Horton., 2022) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6271b6f64a54ec7f8af6ad47/f642557e-4d17-4cc0-966c-a2c91eaaae6e/Vagus+nerve.jpg Blog - The Internal Nervous System of the Heart: Your Heart Has a Mind of its Own - Make it stand out The connections between the brain and the heart via the Vagus nerve.
