Two unnamed women from different cultural backgrounds merge into one portrait, a statement of common humanity in Shepard Fairey's own account. Made for Underdogs in July 2017, the Graça wall joins Fairey's applied red graphic to Vhils's carved half; Fairey's Lisbon series also referenced the 1974 Carnation Revolution. The result is a meeting of two approaches to public memory: one artist lays a political image onto the surface while the other extracts a face from inside it.
