Artwork: Women in public spaces
Artist: Andrea Navarro
Location: Calle Iglesia

A work dedicated to the vindication of public space as a space of equality, empowerment and security for women. Where they can exercise the basic rights of coexistence in freedom. Unfortunately, on many occasions, public space for everyone continues to be designed by and for men. The inclusive Street wants to be an example of equality and free from discrimination.
“The Street. A street that is alive. A street with encounters and equality. A street for coexistence.
A street that doesn’t scare women when night falls. A street that respects. A good-natured street.
Reclaim public space for everyone and for all people. To make it a space to take care of ourselves, to learn and to share. A space of life.
Walk along it without dismay, it’s yours too. Walk in safety. Walk free.
And with every step remember the many valuable things of which you are capable of.”.
