From shop windows to works of art: memorials against violence in Spittal

In Spittal an der Drau, numerous empty businesses have recently been not only a sign of economic changes, but also a memorial to violence. The latest initiative includes art installations that underline the seriousness of the topic. The artist Ulrike Schwager has created impressive sculptures made of cement and iron that illustrate the severity of the topic. In addition, there are graffiti with powerful verses by Heidi Wasser-Mann-Dullnig, which give the works additional depth.

These installations are part of a wider project that helps to sensitize the public about violence. As part of this initiative, additional offers of help in public space were also created. Orange-colored parking benches with QR codes offer people in need to access emergency numbers and useful information.

In addition, multilingual flyers were placed in public toilets and other rooms. These materials should offer women who need help. This commitment is implemented by the Soroptimist Club Spittal Millstättersee in cooperation with various partners. This campaign is a continuous process that goes beyond the 16 days that are made aware of violence against women.

Spittal's action plan for clarification and support in relation to violence is the goal of causing a sustainable change in the perception of the problem. With this initiative, the Soroptimist Club pursues the visibility of the topic and encourage people to take advantage of help.

The artistic and informative projects in Spittal are not only a call to mindfulness, but also a sign of hope. At a time when awareness of social issues grows, the determination of the community is reflected in actively against violence. This exemplary commitment invites society to also participate in this important topic.
