“GIRLS, NOT OBJECTS” is an exhibition hosted by two groups of undergraduate students composed of IKIGAI from Music and Entertainment Business, Silpakorn University and Murasaki Studio from Communication Design (CommDe), Chulalongkorn University who has been collaborating with other students from Faculty of Music, Silpakorn University.

IKIGAI group has the opportunity to study and work within the frame of entertainment business related to idol girl groups and realized the persisting issue that had not been widely discussed within the community, Objectification. Objectification is a term describing acts of human devaluation and treatment of humans as mere objects. This issue is rooted from various factors including cyber-harassment, social norms toward the so-called “public figure” and effects on the entertainment business’s market mechanism. If studied and examined close enough, the Objectification problem could not be blamed on one culprit. Rather, it is complex, many-faceted problem that is increasing in today’s society.
