'The Girl With the Crooked Nose' is about the experiences of forensic sculptor, Frank Bender, who travelled to Juarez to help identify victims of femicide. Find out more here.
This is a call for anybody who has personally been involved in constructing an altar for the women who have fallen victim to the atrocities in Juarez. If you have constructed such an altar and would like to assist an Anthropology student with her research please read on.
Hello,
My name is Joanna Diaz, I am an Anthropology student who is interested in researching the present day significance of the interconnectedness of femicide and the traditional holiday: Dia de los Muertos.
I am currently conducting a survey on the motivations and contemporary significance of Day of the Dead altars for the victims of the femicide in Juarez. My goal is to survey those who have personally been involved in constructing an altar for the women who have fallen victim to the atrocities in Juarez.
If you relate to the demographic I am attempting to reach, please take a few short minutes to complete my survey.
If you feel that you can contribute more to my project through providing interviews, photographs or even networking opportunities, please do not hesitate to contact me.
Joanna Diaz
