Banksy mural in New York in support of Zehra Doğan. 15 March 2018

A 22-meter-long mural was unveiled on 15 March in New York in support of jailed Kurdish painter Zehra Doğan. It is a collaboration with New York artist John Tsombikos, aka BORF. The piece can be found at the corner of Houston Street and the Bowery.

“I really feel for her. I’ve painted things much more worthy of a custodial sentence,” Banksy said in a statement to the New York Times.
