Feminism in Ghent

Description

Update October 2025: this tram has received a new spot. It's now situated between the MSK and SMAK museums.


A project about feminism in Ghent. The making of this work took 2 months because of lots of bad weather. Some words about this project by the artist:
"On the tram, 10 women are depicted which (have) mean(t) a lot in the strive for equal rights. I present you: Greta Craeymeersch, Kati Couck, Moniek Darge, Chantal De Smet, Marijke Colle, Lucie Van Crombrugge, Jaqui Goegebeur, Denise Deweerdt, Roos Proesmans and last but not least Emilie Claeys.
They have started Dolle Mina's in Ghent, women against rape, abortion centres, education about our bodies and sexuality and the list goes on."

This project had a little extra twist: due to some interventions on the tram, some windows were redone. Creating a new version of the artwork, in new colours.

A project by Amazone vzw.

My life? Street art, music, European comics, contemporary art, travelling... On my FlickR account you'll find all my street art photography, and yes that means a lot of pictures. Living in Ghent (Belgium), so most pictures are taken in my home town. And yes, that's the place I'm taking care of on Street Art Cities. Let me know when you come over to visit, perhaps we can have a drink or walk.
