Free Pussy Riot Protest Fence

Pussy Riot Global Day of Action


In solitary with Melbourne Craftivists (http://www.abc.net.au/radionational/programs/booksandartsdaily/pussy-riot/4185712), we decorated fences to protest the imprisonment of the Russian punk feminist band Pussy Riot.  This was part on  a Global Day of Solidarity, August 17th 2012, where countries saw protest, in Paris, Sweden, Germany, Poland, France, China, to name but a few.


Why are we protesting


Pussy Riot were imprisoned and not given a trial for 5 months, for singing a Punk Prayer in a Church.  They did this to protest the collusion of the Russian president Putin, with the church.

This woman has chained herself to the fence ;).
Swinging for the revolution
Small people can have big voices!
