Nadya Tolokonnikova is known internationally as the co-founder of the Russian feminist activist group Pussy Riot. She has instigated some of the most significant actions of social justice against Russian internal, political tyranny, including Pussy Riot's Punk Prayer in the Cathedral of Christ the Savior in Moscow. Tolokonnikova was subsequently imprisoned in Siberia where she was forced to sew Russian army uniforms. In true Tolokonnikova form, she used the sewing skills the regime forced her to learn against the state by creating her own anti-Putin artworks (such as this one) using these same skills. The resulting Putin's Ashes artworks put Tolokonnikova on the international art world map as her first collectible museum and gallery artworks. They also earned her a Russian arrest warrant and a spot on Putin's "most wanted" list. The art historical and political significance of these works is profound.We do not offer in-house shipping but you can arrange your own by contacting one of these four trusted shippers who can deliver your artworks to you safely and fully insured.
