Panmela Castro's Graffiti

Panmela Castro: Saving Lives Through Graffiti (by  Alyse Nelson)

In the new book 'Vital Voices'  graffiti artist Panmela Castro and 31 other women describe how they change the world.

“I just knew I could use my art as a way to communicate what I strongly believed: violence is never justified, never right,” Panmela said. “I thought I could help others see that they have the power to change their situation.’’

Panmela is proof that no matter how young you are, you have the power to make change. She founded an organization called Artefeito to transform culture through art and social projects; through the organization, Panmela is carrying her message beyond Brazil to women across the world.
