we chalk walk

In case you were wondering.

Probably one of the only people in my town brave enough to do this! 😊💪 Definitely got some crazy looks.. Also a few old men had crossed the street when I wrote “I’ve been sexually harassed here since 11 years old” 👌 & there were also some old men who’d come close enough to read what I was writing!! “Someone must have really pissed you off” one guy said.

A Graffiti by Keizer … Total respect !! End sexual Harassment !! Translation in English : “  Collect yourself, before we collect you”

💫we don’t exist for your gaze💫 I did a live painting for Hollaback Montreal (a group working towards ending street harassment & sharing stories from folks who experience it) today! It was overwhelming and couldn’t finish because the rain got too intense! But it was great & thanks to everyone who showed up for support.

After the recent killings of more black bodies, I decided to try these paintings out on the street as wheatpastes.  Critiquing my own work, I do think these paintings are a little over-literal, with the gun targets covering the bodies. I don’t mean to be provocative just for the sake of it. But I do think it’s a strong image.  These are pasted in Newark.
