Zola

Montréal, QC, Canada

Zola is a queer settler anarchist and street artist up to no good in Montréal, Canada, Kanien'kehá:ka & Anishinabe territories. They are connected to different informal groups and collectives addressing art and resistance, with a focus on anticolonialism and anticapitalism. Zola has been doing street art for over 10 years, and their wheatpasted characters of rioters and anonymous militants celebrate direct action and prolongs the visibility of moments of rupture in the streets.
