We asked them to tell us some stories based on personal experience, but that would also be relevant for Kenyan women and their position in society more in general. Five of them – Philo, Maureen, Diana, Nancy and Mary – were willing to do so, and each provided one story in writing and drawing. Philo’s subject was about respect for the woman’s body; Maureen’s about a murder she saw, committed by a husband killing his wife with a knife; Diana’s was about rape at the university campus; Nancy’s about (domestic) violence towards women; and finally Mary’s story was about happiness connected with home at the countryside. We helped them to transfer enlarged version of the handmade drawings and writing to a textile canvas, on which we subsequently embroidered them, all of us working together. Later, these works were part of a public event in Warsaw, called ‘Gotong Royong, Things we do together’.
