malevolence / mə’lεv(e)1(ə)ns/
The quality of being malevolent; the wishing or the disposition to wish evil to others; ill will (The New Shorter Oxford English Dictionary, Volume I)
The MALEVOLENCE initiative starts in Gloucester on 15th February 2024, with an exhibition and surrounding programme. The exhibition brings together a diverse range of works by highly acclaimed international artists and local emerging talent. Looking at different aspects of gender-based violence, it explores society’s attitudes towards the victims and perpetrators of such crimes, highlighting the need for radical change. MALEVOLENCE aims to raise greater awareness of this complex issue and contribute to the campaigning for its elimination.
The Gloucester chapter of this campaign is timed to coincide with the visit of the Anti-Violence Bee Monument, which will be in Kings Square on the 16th February. See the bee-fearless website for future details.
Stay tuned for further information as the initiative unfolds …
