In 2012, Jennifer Maravillas set out on foot to each block of Brooklyn, collecting litter for an art piece titled 71 Square Miles.
“If you look closely you see an array of languages, elements of design, and ideas represented in these bits of garbage.”
Walking more than 70 miles around Brooklyn felt like a tour of the world’s religions, Maravillas says: “There were neighborhoods with strong religious identities. It always feels like reading a book when you go on a big walk.”
71 Square Miles is currently on display at the BRIC House gallery’s “Mapping Brooklyn” exhibit, alongside other artists’ cartographic renditions of the borough.

Women Are Not Seeking Your Validation
Tatyana Fazlalizadeh
January 10-February 21, 2016
Corridor Gallery
334 Grand Ave, Brooklyn, NY
Opening Reception
January 10, 4-6PM
Women Are Not Seeking Your Validation is a statement. It is an assertion acting as retaliation against a society that polices a woman’s value and worth.It is a confrontation. These paintings are an experiment at creating work of and about women that references the male gaze, but is not about it. Exploring ways to assert the voices of women within a patriarchal society.
This exhibition features four oil paintings, and 2 wheat paste installations. Bridging the street art practice with the studio practice. In this work, I’m using portraiture and text to recreate the presence of a woman - her face and her voice. Using oil painting to discover how these assertions of women are comprehended within a gallery space.
Tatyana Fazlalizadeh, a native of Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, currently lives and works in Brooklyn, NY. She is a 2015 Forbes 30 Under 30 recipient. From traditional oil paint to wheat paste on outdoor walls, Fazlalizadeh adds her imagery to a national and international dialogue about conflict in public spaces, such as sexual violence against women. Her street art series, Stop Telling Women to Smile, has garnered attention around the world for bringing light to street harassment and women’s rights via visual art. The public art series can be found on walls across the US, in Mexico City, Berlin, and Paris. Fazlalizadeh’s work has been covered by the New York Times, NPR, MSNBC, and major media outlets. Her work has been exhibited in galleries and museums in New York, Philadelphia, Los Angeles, Oakland, and Detroit.
