NYC-based artist Jess X. Snow created a three-story mural featuring a portrait of Sudanese-migrant poet Safia Elhillo. It is painted in solidarity with and celebration of millions of migrant mothers, peoples and animals of the sea and sky, crossing borders, oceans and deserts in search of home. “Does the ocean and Earth not embrace us the way it does the animals and plants?” Snow asks. “If so, every border drawn is an unnatural act of violence against the Earth and ourselves.” The mural is partially inspired by Elhillo’s poem, which notes two Arabic words that are homophones: one means wind, the other means love.
