Paragan
Paragan in Spanish means “For Gan.” This was a piece that I created for one of my best friends who taught me about visual symbolism and the power of creating art that could disrupt business as usual. My friend Gan was somebody who leveraged art and performance in service of direct action. We had a deep friendship with him for many years, and collaborated on a lot of projects, including some addressing immigrant rights, anticapitalism and climate justice.
