Aria Watson's 'Signed By Trump' photo series reveals just some of the ways in which the president elect has disparaged women in the past.
The idea behind the series was born out of Watson's desire to reveal "who Donald Trump really is." While all of the quotes have been heard by the public and documented in the press, seeing them in such a format makes them more powerful in getting their message across. In each photo, there is a woman who has one of Donald's misogynistic quotes painted on her. Quotes in the series include Donald saying "must be a pretty picture, you dropping to your knees," and "a person who is very flat-chested is very hard to be a 10."
This poignant series makes a compelling statement about the character of a person who will soon be among the most powerful men in the world.
