ABSTRACT

The article focuses on graffiti artist Panmela Castro. It says that Castro, who goes by the name Anarkia is one of the most prominent street artists in Brazil, wherein her engagement in graffiti and her work in the Brazilian slums or favelas challenge popular conceptions of graffiti and women. It mentions that through her work, she creates spaces for conversations on class, gender, and inequality, in which her paintings relay information on abortion rights.
