I had been tipped-off that Goin, who had been in Bristol for Upfest, was going to paint this wonderful ‘extre’ piece in Jamaica Street, but had been told the wrong day, so when I turned up he was nowhere to be seen. When I returned a few days later, here it was in all its glory.

The theme of this greyscale stencil was similar to one he painted for Upfest 2024, in which a young girl defends herself from bullying and danger and through the obvious power the red boxing gloves bestow upon her. The piece is both moving and rebellious, and crafted brilliantly by the French artist.
