STOP 3: Apartment solo, South Bronx. Not that I know anything about street art but I loved this experience of seeing ‘Nestled in Graffiti Roots + Power’ by Olga Correa in her Bronx apartment: “The existing list of female graffiti artists only scratches the surface. Any field, dominated by men, habitually excludes the greatness of women. Puerto Rican, South Bronx raised graffiti artist Olga Correa has definitely been overlooked, but not anymore.” @olgafromnyc http://www.blankaamezkua.com/aaa3a/ #graffiti #femalegraffiti #bronx#artist #strong
