If you are unfamiliar with the term artivism, its the combination of the two words activism and artist where the body of work is decidedly linked to activism. We also talk about ahimsa and how it’s directly related to this project.Connect with Alfredo:Website: intheblink.orgInstagram: @alfredomeschix
