You must believe me (and I can raise my head)

Matthieu Zellweger

All of these men have experienced domestic violence (sexual, physical, psychological). Several wished to remain anonymous. The mask fulfills this function and reminds us that it is the gaze of others that pushes victims to hide. This is more pronounced for men who struggle to reconcile their reality as victims with the vision that society projects on a man.
