Bathroom stall door with lots of text, including "Fuck ICE" and "Be Kind."

Found Art by Debbie Hall


Artist’s Statement

My twin creative passions are poetry and photography. Both pursuits involve close attention and discovery—new ways of seeing and understanding. I’ve always been fond of juxtaposition in my writing and in the visual art of photography. In this photo of the back of a heavily etched restroom stall door, I was struck by the seemingly contradictory statements of “Fuck Ice,” and “Be Kind.” And yet, this is where we find ourselves these days.

One thought on “Found Art by Debbie Hall”

  1. “Fuck ICE” IS being kind. It is in solidarity to the kindness of strangers.
