A group of kids getting ready to jump off a pier in a shot reminiscent of the most famous frame from The Seventh Seal, a film by Ingmar Bergman.

Goes a long way when you're dealing with life.

Tower Bridge is a combined bascule and suspension bridge in London, built between 1886 and 1894. The bridge crosses the River Thames close to the Tower of London and has become an iconic symbol of London. As a result, it is sometimes confused with London Bridge, about half a mile upstream.

Tucked into the culturally rich Bayview-Hunters Point neighborhood, this powerful piece of street art encapsulates the soul of San Francisco’s diverse history and enduring resilience. Located near the vibrant Bayview Commons Apartments on Third Street, the artwork draws inspiration from the legacy of Maya Angelou, with the words “I Rise” boldly emblazoned on the utility box. The message, a nod to Angelou's famous poem, reflects the strength and perseverance of the African American community in the Bayview neighborhood, which has historically been a hub of Black culture and activism in the city.

 

The painting depicts a confident, regal figure wearing a colorful headwrap, evoking both historical and contemporary themes of black pride and identity. This mural, like many others around Bayview, celebrates the community's rich history while promoting unity and empowerment. Street art has flourished in this area as a way to highlight social justice issues and honor local culture. The creative use of public spaces, from utility boxes to entire building walls, brings life to the streets while fostering a deep sense of community pride.

 

Bayview is not just known for its murals but also for its architectural significance, blending old industrial structures with new development. The neighborhood is a tapestry of artistic expression, with many other pieces nearby, making it a hidden gem for those seeking off-the-beaten-path art in San Francisco.

 

When you visit, take a moment to pause and absorb the strength behind the brushstrokes—this is more than just a mural; it’s a visual anthem of resilience, painted in the heart of a neighborhood that continues to rise.

Now I just say F*** it I am who I am and Im gon be who I be. This is me!!

~I wear these wraps proudly my sistah & will NEVER forget who I really em~
