The street as an artistic space for women: The writer and the street artist

Women have always been in the graffiti world. To a lesser extent than the males but it was indeniable. The same problems that a woman has every day in her work had the writer in her environnment. It was dangerous activity and it was tried to protect in a paternalistic way, the girls that wanted to enter a crew. Always say that woman comes to this discipline thanks to her boyfriends, friends, brothers or drawing partners. Those who entered without help looked at them suspiciously. The woman of the Street Art has it easier. She is freer when it comes to executing a work and not hold onto styles stipulated by discipline. She doesn’t need to go out in a group because she doesn’t practice painting trains. But the machism of some comrades, based on envy,suffer as any woman; many have left Graffiti for Street Art, others continue in spite of everything.
