Women Photographers: We Will Expose the Inequality

Since the past, 103 female photographers including Naciye Suma, Meryem Şahinyan, Samiha Es , Eleni Kuremen and many other female photographers ,who are ignored and surrounded by male dominated mind, want to draw attention to the world of photography and called all the photographers to start the movement of change.

Female photographers also said they would boycott any case of gender inequality by choosing not to be founder, participant, manager or audience when necessary.

Part of the explanation is as follows:

We are here, as photographers who are concerned about the inequality and discrimination based on gender; who try to produce a language other than the language used by sexism, racism, nationalism. We also refuse to be bound by the definitions and perceptions of the dual gender system and we are in the pursuit of this disparity in the field of photography.

From now on, we will not be a part of discriminating activities;

In all kinds of institutional structures (associations, foundations, federations, etc.)

In organizational administration (mixed exhibition, workshop, symposium, festival, conference etc.),

The planned activities we are invited to (exhibition, panel, conference etc.),

If necessary, we will boycott by choosing not to be founder, manager, participant or audience.
