A new photo series is reminding survivors of sexual assault that it is never their fault.

The series titled "Dear Brock Turner" was created by photographer Yana Mazurkevich for the sexual assault awareness media platform Current Solutions. The project features images of six women holding signs that read phrases survivors of sexual assault and rape often hear such as, "You shouldn't have been walking alone," and "You should have expected this to happen."

Each phrase is written from the perspective of a victim -- highlighting how survivors often blame themselves because society too often conditions women to believe they are responsible for their own assault. This sense of guilt and shame forces many survivors to stay silent about their assaults, ultimately choosing not to seek help or justice.

Although nearly one in five women will be sexually assaulted in their lifetimes, only one out of every three assaults are reported.

"Victim-blaming isn’t just some side effect of sexual assault. It’s a harmful, painful reality that perpetuates the culture we live in today which has allowed this issue to be so taboo, yet so prevalent," a spokesperson for the Current Solutions team told The Huffington Post. "Sexual assault is already such an under-reported crime, but victim blaming makes it even harder for survivors to come forward."

Some pointed to letters from Turner’s family and friends to the judge residing over the case, as the reason for the 21-year-old’s lenient sentence. Many of the letters, including ones from Turner's father's and childhood friend, blamed alcohol and the victim -- not Turner -- for the sexual assault.

Mazurkevich told HuffPost that she was inspired to create the series because she was sexually assaulted during her freshman year of college. "It hit me like a ton of bricks that I was now part of the statistics: I was now the one in four women to get assaulted," she said. "What’s scary is that I personally know friends who have been assaulted, and they know friends who have. That's what is gut-wrenching -- it's so real and no one really realizes."

The images of women holding victim-blaming phrases paired with Turner's victim's heart-wrenching quotes give readers a glimpse at what so many sexual assault survivors go through.

As the Current Solutions spokesperson said: "If we can impact just one person by telling these stories, by putting faces to the statistics, then we will have achieved our mission."

Yana Mazurkevich, Current Solutions (Excerpt from Stanford sexual assault victim's letter.) “If she is wearing a cardigan over her dress don’t take it off so that you can touch her breasts. Maybe she is cold, maybe that’s why she wore the cardigan."

Yana Mazurkevich, Current Solutions (Excerpt from Stanford sexual assault victim's letter.) “If she is too drunk to even walk and falls down, do not mount her, hump her, take off her underwear, and insert your hand inside her vagina."

Yana Mazurkevich, Current Solutions (Excerpt from Stanford sexual assault victim's letter.) “So one year later, as predicted, a new dialogue emerged. Brock had a strange new story, almost sounded like a poorly written young adult novel with kissing and dancing and hand holding and lovingly tumbling onto the ground, and most importantly in this new story, there was suddenly consent. One year after the incident, he remembered, oh yeah, by the way she actually said yes, to everything, so."

Yana Mazurkevich, Current Solutions (Excerpt from Stanford sexual assault victim's letter.) “You were wrong for doing what nobody else was doing, which was pushing your erect dick in your pants against my naked, defenseless body concealed in a dark area, where partygoers could no longer see or protect me, and my own sister could not find me."
