Rep. Joyce Beatty Tribute - See No Hear No Speak No - Sam Cooke Tribute
Three works. Left to right:
Mural of Rep. Joyce Beatty in the "Rosie The Riveter" pose. A quote in the upper corner reads "'We Will Not Be Silenced. We Will Not Be Ignored. We Will Persevere.' #JusticeForAll Rep. Joyce Beatty."
The second work shows three one-eyed aliens: one covering its eye, one its ears, and the other its mouth. Around the aliens are stars, planet, clouds, a heart, and the Dutch cartoon rabbit "Miffy."
The third work is a tribute to Sam Cooke, a Black singer. It covers previous graffiti with a red background, an outline portrait of Cooke, and the words "Change gonna come." Above the portrait are white and green music notes.
On the third panel are other words from different artists, including "Freedom," and "The Change."

From the contributor: "My wife and I went downtown to photograph the protest art as we knew that it would not last (for a variety of reasons). The military was still on the streets, a curfew was still in place, and police were still assaulting innocent protestors. Columbus is the capitol of Ohio, so much of this was around the capitol building."

O-H-I-O
This mural has four large, neon colored hands forming the letters "O-H-I-O" in ASL. Around the hands are clouds, stars, planets, a heart, and a rocket ship.
From artist's IG:
"So I got the opportunity to paint this wonderful mural over the weekend, ive been out there for 4 days straight watching our community fighting so hard to uplift everyone around them and help people become more aware.
I chose to paint the words
O-H-I-O
In sign language because shows the amount of silence our community has been towards these issues. And we’re all the same aliens living in the same universe ðŸŒ
Thank you so much to Huntington #board41 for commissioning me this project. This is just the start definitely more to come ðŸ™ðŸ¾ If you haven’t please go check out my mural and all the other beautiful artwork at:
