Paint the Revolution is an expressive but creative agitation against division, discrimination and distrust carefully crafted in solidarity with grassroots movements through the promotion of local knowledge and cultural heritage.
Through Paint the Revolution, DLMGA engages with artistes around the world to create thought provoking art and performance that amplifies community resistance and resilience against (caste) inequality, injustice and indignity.
In the last two editions, over 50 artists and activists created over 15 mural paintings, and wheat paste in different locations across Nepal. These artworks have been exhibited in different national and international forums such as the World Social Forum, Nepal Social Work Symposium, One-Day Feminist Conference, and many more. These impactful visuals gained significant attention and were also featured on the BBC and other national media.
The future editions of Paint the Revolution aims to expand the scope of the campaign and engage other forms of artistic expression like cinematography, documentaries, music, traditional arts, and literature to promote counter-narratives to the system exclusion.
