    Help Stop This Madness

    With the amount of shit Kwin has to put up with (I’ll relate the story about the images above later..) you would hope she might get some support from the city which benefits from her hard work.

    Nope.

    For the last few months, the Council has been sending their bully-boys around to push Kwin out of her spot. They send gangs of armed men to harass our disabled, 70-year old artist out of her safe spot of years.

    See the petition, please support Kwin by signing:

    …getting sick of this

    So I get this sms just before midnight last night —

    “Fucking tall African c**t walks by is this ur art work yes I said c**t spat at me and on my work grrr”

    When I arrived my stoic friend is reduced to tears when she relates this unprovoked, cowardly surprise assault. And Kwin was SPAT ON (the head/face) not just spat at.

    It was only months ago a very tall black pregnant African mother stopped, randomly begins a viscious verbal assault on Kwin about how she is “scum” a “beggar” and this proud woman had a house etc. and would not be caught dead working hard to create beauty for mere “donations”…

    …and then punched my disabled, 70-year-old, twin stroke suffering legend in the head repeatedly until Kwin sustained further brain damage. There is now an anurysm which requires brain surgery asap. So you might begin to empathise just how harrowing this latest assault was. I detest seeing good people scared for no good reason and like I titled this post….

    I’m Getting REALLY Sick Of It. Something will break and I’m gonna do my best to make sure it’s not Kwin. Jono.

    Introducing my friend, the well-known local street artist ‘Kwin’

    Who is a true-blue, goddamn, legendary trooper! She’s old & grey with two mangled hips with which to drag herself around these days. She’s been bashed about the head *after* sufferring a double stroke, regularly gets the most rank verbal abuse spewed on her for no apparent reason YET STILL manages to bring beauty to our wet, grey city pavements EVERY WEEKEND.
