30 Graffiti Art By The Supreme Queen Lady Pink

Born as Sandra Fabara in 1964, Queen Lady Pink is an Ecuadorian-American graffiti and mural artist. Over her career, she has used graffiti and murals as acts of rebellion and self-expression. But most importantly, she wants to empower women through her art.

In one interview, she said, “It’s not just a boys club. We have a sisterhood thing going”. Nicknamed the first lady of graffiti, Sandra began her career in the 1980. At the time, she created the all female graffiti crew Ladies of the Arts.

Within a few years, they started going with other graffiti crews, including TC5 or The Cool 5 and TPA, The Public Animals.

Seen TC5 gave her the name Lady Pink because the name is feminine and she wanted other writers to know that she was a girl. Sandra, on the other hand, called herself Lady Pink because of her love of historical romances. And then she added the title Queen because she loves the Victorian period in England and aristocracy.

Her exhibits are full of magic, supernatural women, and classic New York grit. Through her portrays of women as provocative street warriors in the concrete jungle, or as mythical goddesses, she has captured the attention of people in the world.

Some of her most famous murals include Brick Woman in Braddock, Pennsylvania, 9/11 tribute in Queens, New York, and Lady Liberty in Queens, New York.

Here is some of her best artwork.

You can consider this a self-portrait. After all, artists from all over the world throughout history have painted self-portraits. And modern artists, even graffiti artists have accepted the technique.

3. Home Sweet Home

This is probably how the famous graffiti artist imagines her home. For some might be delusional and psychotic, but Queen Lady finds her peace there. And we cannot judge taste.

One thing that the New York artist is famous for her is references to pop culture. You can find hundreds of references in this graffiti. Think of it as graffiti within graffiti. She is just amazing at capturing details.

8. Pink Ghetto

As many African American in the United States, Pink also grew up in a ghetto. And she tries to empower women to stand up and get more out of their life. That is probably the reason why she paints the ghetto as a beautiful and pink looking place.

9. Teamwork

One of the reason fans relate to her art is Queen Lady can definitely deliver a message. And she does it in the most obvious way possible. Just look at this graffiti. At first glance, you think is her team painting a mural on the train. But the painting also carries a metaphorical message.

10. Faith In Women

It is time that we move onto some of the most famous of her murals. And that includes the category empowering women. How many pop culture references can you find in this picture? Exactly, that is her way of making fiction women part of the real world.

Titled Faith in Women, this piece not only includes strong anti-war symbolism but also takes a stance on women’s issues.

11. Gardiner/Sunflower

Did you notice the woman’s eye in the middle? It is subtle, but that is the trick with Fabara. She loves to keep things hidden in the little details.

12. Brick Lady

Sandra has a couple of “brick ladies” painted over the street of New York. Why does she use bricks? Well, by representing strong women her pieces, she often paints women made out of bricks to represent the strength and courage women have.

13. Hoot Owl

A few years ago, the owl symbol was one of the most popular symbols. We saw it on everything. From accessories to fashion outfits. And of course, Sandra jumped on the opportunity to use it for her mural.

14. The Death Of Graffiti

Some would say graffiti is not as popular as it used to be. Others would say that some new and modern artists have taken the art technique to a whole new level. This painting shows Sandra’s opinion on the matter.

15. Lady Liberty

You have to look deep and behind the painting to understand its true meaning. This graffiti depicts a pink lady liberty holding a tray of fast food, wearing a burning American flag and lead by a monkey with a chain.

Literally every piece has its own symbolism. For example, the monkey is representative of George Bush as he guides lady liberty with a chain.

The painting is a true expression of her negative feelings and reaction to Bush and how American civil liberties are being eroded. That is why the monkey is pulling lady liberty by a chain.

16. New Pride

Lady Pink supports different groups and their human rights. And she finds ways to support groups like LGBT with her art. Pride is often a word we associate with the LGBTQ community.

Bricks are Lady Pink’s favorite element. We said before she uses bricks to show how strong women are. And even if you do not consider yourself a strong woman, start finding your inner strength.

18.  Wellington Court Project Mural

Another element we often find in Lady Pink’s art is chain. You can often see subjects pulling someone on chain. And you have to associate them with things in real life.

19. Resist

You can easily this is a modern graffiti painted in the last several years. After all, even Donald Trump makes an appearance.

20.  Lady of The Leaf

Growing up, the American artist had lots of girls looking up to her. She was the bravest one. And she was inspired by pop culture, similar to how Marcia Brady stood up for herself. Today, she wants to show girls all over the world that same courage.

21. Vote

For the past American elections, a lot of celebrities got into inspiring and motivating people to go vote. And each of them did on their own field. For Sandra, that field is the streets of New York where she could support and encourage people to get out.

22. Stickers

If you want to see some interesting stickers, Lady Pink definitely has some of them. Trains often make an appearance here.

She painted subway trains from 1979 to 1985. And nowadays, trains make an appearance as stickers and elements in her artwork.

Day of the Dead is a celebration in Ecuador, Sandra’s home country on November 2. Friends and family come to remember their loved ones and bring meals to share with those on their journey to the next life.

25. Welling Court Project Mural

You can say the Day of the Deceased inspired Sandra for this mural as well. After all, she is one of the few artists in New York that can make a skull look beautiful.

26. Lady Of The Leaf (Green)

We had this graffiti in a different color. It carries the same message about empowering women, but in a bit more serious color.

27. My Boo

When you think of the term “my boo”, it means “my boyfriend” or my loved one. And it is usually an association for a romantic relationship and love. Not when Sandra paints it. She has some different ideas.
