Urban Misogyny focuses on the idea that injustice and violence against women spring from the accepted notion of women as passive objects.

This is evident in the way women and girls are represented in the media. Outdoor posters and billboards are displayed in the busiest parts of town and are accessible to anyone.  We see them every day and we grow accustomed to them. They shape how ordinary men see women and how ordinary women see themselves.

This photo series focuses on examples of the disparity between what real women look like, and what the model of ideal beauty forces the reader to be.

The photos have been displayed at the Rag Factory in London and in Shipley Underground market and collected in a booklet.
