The Tirek journey: Where data meets art to illuminate women’s realities across Central Asia
Art can move us in ways words can’t. Paired with data, it becomes a bridge — turning numbers into human stories that demand to be seen and heard.
“Tirek: The Threads of Her Life” brings together 14 powerful data artworks by Central Asian artists, each rooted in real gender data and the everyday realities of women and girls: unpaid care, workplace bias, stereotypes, son preference, and the harsh truths of gender‑based violence.
Through a partnership between UN Women’s “Making Every Woman and Girl Count” programme in Europe and Central Asia and the School of Data, Tirek transforms statistics into art — creating new pathways for empathy, conversation, and action on gender equality.
