About Us
We are a collective of independent artists dedicated to narrating the narratives of the South Asian community with safety, accessibility, and cultural sensitivity at the forefront.
Our passion lies in addressing the issue of domestic violence through meaningful storytelling, respecting the values integral to our culture. Driven by a commitment to community values, vibrant cultural ceremonies, and profound artistic practices, we aspire to instigate lasting change within our community.
Discover how our show is actively breaking the silence around domestic violence in the South Asian community, fostering an environment where these crucial conversations can unfold without stigma.
Our Approach to Change
Within the South Asian community, talking openly about these issues can run the risk of repercussions. Mainstream reporting pathways can be seen as a betrayal of perceived family values. As a result, attendance at support services is low and culturally specific support systems remain underfunded. The rates of domestic violence in our community has become severely underreported despite regular news reports.
Identify abusive behaviour
Talking about these issues are generally perceived as being against community family values. Behind closed doors opens the conversation to help identify safe ways of engaging in the conversation without compromising these values.
