Born in San Diego in 1955, Artivist in the streets since 2003, artist Antonia Davis has worked to support myriad social justice and environmental causes in San Diego.

Founding member of the San Diego Puppet Insurgency offering imagery and art builds to scores of local organizations and student groups. Her own work focuses on amplifying the voices of marginalized groups.

After a lifetime of being told by

old white men

what is right or wrong

what is true or false

what is history

what is important

and what is sacred,

I have decided to listen to other

voices. The voices

of women

of people of color

of youth

of queer and two-spirit people

of nature

All of these voices ask me to use

my white, cis, and economic

privilege to amplify their voices.

Their struggles are our struggles.
