1 in 3 women (and 1 in 4 men) have experienced some form of physical violence by an intimate partner (NCADV, 2010). Moreover, at least 50% of Americans reported experiencing lifetime emotional abuse by a family member (Karakurt and Silver, 2013).

Loverly has been curated with artifacts gathered from Huntsville, AL that represent an abstract interpretation of ‘shelter.’ Designed to be interactive with the viewer, Loverly moves beyond the imagination and becomes a shared moment of connection in a community space.
