"STRONG WOMAN"
by Braga last1
Taking the idea from a 1942 song, "Rosie the Riveter," Westinghouse created it's famous "We Can Do It!" poster later that same year, representing the women serving in industry in support of the war effort. Only decades after the war did the iconic image become popularly referred to as "Rosie the Riveter." In 2019 Marseille-born artist Tom Bragado Blanco, aka Braga last1, updated the strong image of Rosie for a new generation with this mural for female-led @PodShare DTLA on E 1st St, on the border between the Little Tokyo and Arts District neighborhoods of Los Angeles. @braga_last_one/
