100 days of Active Resistance online

"The principal idea of Active Resistance is that you get out of life what you put in and that real experience of the world involves thinking"
Vivienne Westwood.

100 days of positive thought, active change, speaking up and being heard. From small personal actions to larger collective moments of change, each represents a unique form of Vivienne Westwood's Active Resistance.
Take a photo, write a slogan, create an image or artwork, alter perceptions, affect your environment, get involved and be part of a 100 days campaign for worldwide change.
Every day, for the next 100 days, Vivienne Westwood and Lee Jeans will publish one image of active resistance online. Active Resistance is a project of positive thoughts, active changes, speaking up and being heard. And you can be part of thatli. The images will be selected from your submissions.

As Vivienne Westwood has put it together:
“It is not enough to follow world politics, see films and read the prize-winning best seller. This is superficial, you need to go deep in order to understand who you are, what the world is and how things could be better. This involves culture which can only be acquired by self-education: human beings should mirror the world.”

100 days of resistance will start the 8th of september. At the close of 100 days, the 100 chosen images will become a part of a London exhibition, dedicated to the project.

*"lo que miras y no ves" will follow those 100 days of Active Resistance and will get out if it's only a Vivienne Westwood advertising campaign or a really open-art resistance to the world.
