Chloe is the head of the Maison Flora Tristan where i decided to do 4 murals. Houses like these, shelters for women fleeing the violence of a partner, husband of family, are welcomed there, with their kids, and protected and healed through sisterhood and workers like this woman. Her and her team are at the forefront of all the fights we fight, at the dangerous and very real frontline of that war for respect, dignity and equity. She has been working in this world for the past 20years and says that, unfortunately, shelters like hers are still just as full as 20 years ago... domestic violence is alive and well.. and even though we have managed to SLIGHTLY lessen the absolute silence and shame around it, the silence perdures.. as our society and politicians don’t like to focus on such things... but i say a society is only doing as well as the way it deals with their most oppressed and ignored populations... so Chloe, dear warrior queen, i salute you.
