#HerConfidence

7 in 10 girls believe they are not good enough or do not measure up in some way, including their looks, performance in school and relationships with family and friends.

This confidence exhibit takes place in a women’s bathroom, a place where self-esteem is often questioned and challenged. The exhibition educates people that low self-esteem in women starts at a young age and aims to change the perception of beauty through an empowering experience. A visitor is guided through graffiti mimicking statistics regarding self confidence, then are invited to take a photo in the photo booth, write and receive a compliment, and read inspirational stories. This is an exhibit for all women to find the confidence within.
