Screenprints

​تبوس أمك مع هذاك الفم؟

This project tackled street harassment and catcalling. The first part of the project used screenprinted tiles with words to represent the everyday barrage of slurs women and femme aligned folks face. The second part of the project was a series of triptychs with slurs and catcalls screenprinted over their images. The words were pulled from the subject's own real-life experiences and written in their handwriting. This series was shown in the Katzen Rotunda at American University in December 2016.
