A Global Street Art Story: Egypt (No to Stripping the People)
$150.00 CAD
Originally a stencil painted in Cairo by Shehab, No to Stripping the People symbolizes a specific instance from December 2010 in which a young woman was publicly beaten by Egyptian military in Tahrir Square. During the attack, the police disrobed half of the woman’s abaya, revealing her blue bra. The image of the bra quickly became a symbol of the abuse by the Egyptian military. “The blue bra is to remind us of our shame as a nation when we allow a veiled woman to be stripped and beaten on the street,” described Shehab in a 2012 interview.
