"Should I walk the dark way home or the long way home?" It was this question, asked every time she walks home from her studio in London, that inspired artist Hanna Benihoud to launch a project called "Girls of the Light", creating seven colourful animations and projecting them in seven different spots, flagged by local women as dark or unsafe, in the lead-up to International Women's Day. Her objective: to see what art and design can do to change the experience of certain "hostile" spaces, using them as a canvas. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
