The art of fighting against gender violence

The day she gave birth to her first child, La Suerte changed her face. After five years of flooding the walls of Quito with their unmistakable murals, this Ecuadorian graphic artist understood that she should incorporate social commitment into her works. "I realized that we are building a world in which he is going to grow up," he explains. Since then, her paintings have been the image of the feminist collective Vivas nos queremos, which has mobilized thousands of people in recent years against feminicide. La Suerte, the artistic name of this 29-year-old illustrator, is one of the most well-known faces of a new trend in Ecuador: art with a gender perspective.
