In italiano a seguire. Рёбра Евы / Eve's Ribs organized a Feminist Festival in Saint Petersburg at the end of September 2017. “One woman out of three in the world is a victim of sexual and/or domestic violence. Last year, President Vladimir Putin approves legal changes that decriminalize some domestic violence. I think what Eve’s Ribs proposed was an excellent initiative that should be organized and spread globally. Through art, we can change the world, educate people, and inspire people around us to become stronger believers in justice. “ Рёбра Евы / Eve's Ribs ha organizzato lo scorso settembre un festival femminista a San Pietroburgo. “Nel mondo una donna su tre è vittima di violenza sessuale e/o domestiche. In Russia, nel 2017, il presidente Vladimir Putin ha cambiato la legge dove decriminalizza alcune violenze domestiche. Credo che quello che Eve´s Ribs ha proposto è stata un´ottima iniziativa che necessita di maggiore divulgazione. Attraverso l´arte possiamo cambiare il mondo, possiamo informare, possiamo rendere migliore chi ci sta intorno.”
