This piece connects the dots between militarism, occupation, genocide, and gender violence in Palestine. It features a figure holding up a hand in a gesture of cessation above silhouettes of a crowd of protesters. The female figure is boldly saying NO to ongoing settler-colonial gender violence.
This piece was my second collaboration with INCITE! Women, Gender Non-Conforming, and Trans People of Color Against Violence and the Palestinian Feminist Collective. This was originally printed as an offset and was reproduced in the thousands, distributed and wheat-pasted in the streets of major cities throughout the United States.
Through my work, I immortalize powerful moments of collective resistance and create visual tools for communities to express their outrage. The composition of this piece was inspired by a 1970s Vietnam poster that features a female character expressing resistance.
