With or without a camera I am a born pugilist. If you don’t believe it ask my partner in crime writer Claudia G Dowling. Or better yet talk with a local barber, Danny. who tried to turn me away from his shop even though I made an appointment the day before. He refused to honor it. He politely but firmly said to my face that real barbers don’t cut women’s hair. We were not alone in the shop owned by large men from Kosovo. Quietly they held their breath at the spectacle of a squall in their orderly man’s space. I warned him not to hit the hornets nest. He weakened and the switch in his brain flipped. It was a chance I wasn’t going to ever get it again so I jumped on the big man’s chair and gave him ideas how to fluff my bed head. With a flourish he used his comb and clippers and whipped through my dry so fast I purred with pleasure. And so we bridged the gulf between man and woman one tendril at a time.

It’s been a holy unf**king believable week. And it’s already Palm Sunday, so we took a walk around the city to spread the message “Holy are the rights of women” from the gallery to the church.

Sometimes the gallery can be a pulpit, as powerfully curated by my friend and collaborator

Every day has been intense, and we’d like to share some of these stories with you in the coming days.

We want to thank to all these people who made it possible:

Leonardo Di Loreto .r Aina Bauza and

Without any of these people there won’t be the Holy show.

Thanks to the mother of god //
smash the patriarchy activate yourself //

In the immensity of the beauty of Leonard St and the iconic architecture we live amongst I reflect on the way we live today since this little community grew from its feral days in the 1800’s when tribeca was called “Calk Hook”. Ciao my friends going straight to a rooftop that sits in the face of Tower 1. Crazy storm: Here we come!
