Artist Sarah Levy has a point to make about Donald Trump. And she's making it in blood.
Menstrual blood.
The self-described "journalist, activist and artist" aims to hit back at the Republican candidate, taking inspiration from his two biggest campaign blunders:
- When he called Mexican migrants in the US "rapists" and "murderers".
- When he suggested Fox News host Megyn Kelly was giving him a hard time because she was on her period.
Levy, from Portland, Oregon, waited for just the right time in her menstrual cycle, then painted a portrait of Trump using her period blood.
Behold "Whatever".
According to BuzzFeed News, the artist plans to sell her work and donate all profits to a pro-immigration organisation.
That he thinks he can bring up the healthy functioning of women's reproductive systems to insult women's intelligence is a big problem that I think needs to be called out.
However, she was keen to note the colour had already faded from bright red to a reddish-brown.
