This unapologetic feminist protest artwork reimagines the legacy of the Founding Fathers with a bold twist. Against a vibrant pink background—long tied to femininity—the raised middle finger becomes a symbol of resistance, power, and defiance. The painting confronts outdated notions of femininity as weakness, instead merging softness with unapologetic strength.

Every stroke is an act of rebellion, reclaiming autonomy from patriarchal systems and asserting self-expression, body sovereignty, and feminist power. This canvas isn’t just décor—it’s a statement for anyone who refuses to be silenced.

Perfect for collectors of feminist protest art, bold wall décor, political art canvases, and contemporary feminist paintings, this piece is designed to spark conversation and inspire strength.
