– (ISSA) Introduce yourself to us!

(VB) I’ m vegan bunnies a girl from Peru living in Barcelona, loving graffiti and street interventions.

– What is Graffiti for you? What impact has it had in your life?

Graffiti is freedom for me, it gives me the power to do something i love. It is a really important part of my life it made me grown in a lot of different aspects of art and street interventions.

– How did the collective Thehatelovers arise and why?

It raised from the need of a group of girls , of friends to do support each other and to make people notice girls in different aspects like graffiti and others, a crew of girls that just want to be taken in the same way boys are taken.

– What is your main goal as a Collective?

To keep on with projects and show the work of wonderful women out there.

-Does Graffiti ought to be a social or a political activity?

It depends on the person.

– How can we be informed about your next actions?

You can follow us on Twitter, Facebook and we are working on a better website.

– How do you think your role as a female artist has impacted this predominately male-dominated culture?

We all (girls) are making a difference and motivating more each other.

-How can we make the presence of women in Graffiti, more visible?

By supporting each other and showing that there is no difference in graffiti with a girl or a boy, we do the same thing, let’s forget about gender!

– Street art has had a big impact on society in the last few years. Many artists manage to get in the spotlight and try making a career out of it. What do you think about this evolution?

Well graffiti is a thing, and street art is another thing, yes i think it has been a door for many artists and for me it has always been a way out to my thoughts, feelings etc, so, if people recognized my work it was a nice feeling but in my case it was mainly interventions, that brought me some recognition, I was not looking for that, I just wanted to share a vegan, political and also emotional message.
About people or artists trying to get in the spotlight they are free and if they get what they look for I’m glad for them.

– What are you working on nowadays?

I’ve got two exhibitions, one in Colone, Germany and another one in Madrid, Spain. This is the way I can find support to keep on doing what i love , art , graffiti and street interventions.

– What are your plans for the future?

Hopefully travelling a lot, painting big walls and also sharing a vegan, feminist and political message.

– Do you have a wild project that you dream of achieving some day?

As i said paint a massive wall , a building if its posible.
