"Boss Bitch: WeTheUrban Certified! 21 year old photography major, Lindsay Bottos, has turned cruel, anonymous messages that she received on Tumblr ‘selfies’ into an art project.
The project calls attention to the harsh words people feel emboldened to say about others - especially women - in an online environment, things that they would most likely never say to someone’s face.
It was the images of herself that drew the most vitriol, with internet trolls telling her she was fat, too thin, ugly, stupid, a slut - and one told her they wanted her to die."
It is amazing the impact a words on people... even when they come from invisible baphoons out on the ether...
