HOPES OF FREEDOM
Mural on Electrical Box, 2024
Brookline, MA, USA
This box was created in honor of Henry “Box” Brown, an abolitionist who escaped enslavement by shipping himself to freedom in a wooden crate. As is often the case in my murals, I invited community members to join me as I painted, as seen in the gallery below.
