Paint Me Safe NFT on XRPL
Paint Me Safe
Collection: Under their eyes
There was a time in this world — and honestly, still is — when people were judged, beaten, ignored, and stripped of their rights because of the color of their skin. This artwork is not about makeup. It’s about survival. I imagined a boy who has been treated badly in every way possible. Mocked, hated, denied dignity — not because of who he is, but because of how he looks. After all the cruelty, he doesn’t fight back with violence. He chooses something quieter, more painful. He goes to his makeup artist friend and asks for a new skin. Not to become someone else — but to finally be treated as human. The brush touching his face is not beauty. It’s fear, exhaustion, and hope mixed together. This piece asks a hard question: Why should anyone have to change their skin to deserve respect?
