LOUD AND PROUD: I stand with my trans family as part of the LGBTQ+ community! Allyship is not optional—IT’S NEEDED RIGHT NOW! I see you, I hear you, and I recognize you for who you are—not who the world tells you to be. #Transally

My heart breaks for youth endangered by politics like Trump leaving the Paris Agreement. Marginalized Global South groups, who had no say, bear the brunt. In 2023 archival images, my piece “I <3 The Paris Agreement” used graffiti to highlight this. #ClimateJustice

This piece, made from burnt wood and charcoal after the Hollywood Hills fires, was one of the hardest I’ve created emotionally. As fires rage on in 2025, it’s a haunting reminder of a world on fire. We can’t look away. #LAfires #PacificPalisadesFire

As a climate activist and artist, I’ve painted orange skies and warned “Liar, liar, Earth is on fire” time and time again. Now, it’s happening again—fires raging with higher intensity after 8 months without rain. This is the harsh reality of our changing climate. #PalisadesFire

The Bible shows immense concern for Syria, yet in the 21st century, many who use it to justify bigotry are not only opposing freedom of movement and refugee assistance but are also often driving the conflicts themselves. Something doesn’t add up...

When you get a call from the Clintons inviting you to cover their annual meeting in NYC, you say yes. I am grateful to have live sketched the event, capturing its energy in real-time. Big thanks to the team—excited to share the sketches soon!

My deepest thoughts have been consumed by the landscape of racism and hatred in Britain'. In a world where scapegoating echo the chapters of history, I created [Our Heart and Lungs Breathe as One] as a response to the far-right riots marring the social fabric of the UK. #Artivism #Painting

1/ COP29 is in Azerbaijan, a country with a troubling record of silencing dissent and violating human rights, including against LGBTQ+ communities. Like COP28 in Dubai and COP27 in Egypt, I’m not there—but we need to talk about this.

A reminder that we have the power to redefine ‘success’—shifting from greed and extraction to values of care, sustainability, and shared prosperity. Together, we can rebuild trust and hope in new systems that truly serve, uplift, and unite us all. #Tomorrow

If you're not clinically depressed, are you even self aware 🤔🫠

A myth is that art is just a painting on a wall or a decoration in a living room. In truth, art has led revolutions, shaped ideas, and united people across time. What piece of art has changed the way you see the world? #Artivism
