WW: Fearless Girl NYC

This is a long overdue post about me and the Fearless Girl of New York City.


Have you heard of it?
The Fearless Girl of New York?
So what's the story, girl?

Cheers from me and the fearless girl of NYC



Right in front of the Charging Bull of New York, stand this awesome Fearless Girl.
Standing a kimbo with determination on her face, Fearless Girl, a bronze statue made by Kristen Visbal, is originally made to send the message regarding gender diversity and equality in work place. Well, she is commissioned by State Street Global Advisors via McCann in New York and installed in Bowling Green in the Financial District in Manhattan, where you have NY Stock Exchange and many important trading companies as well as financial institutions. Hopefully this statue will be a constant reminder that women can be strong and brave to do similar works done by men. Noting that the financial world is dominated by men, I think this strong signal is so appropriate!

I love to see the figure and the characters depicted in this statue.
This girl is strong, brave, and so ready to face the world.
Look at her chin and determined eyes! 
Up in the air, yet not turning her as a boastful nor belligerent one.
She's just brave, fearless.
Love it!

By the time I visited this girl, back in July 2018, she was still standing tall (although she is only 50 inches or 130 cm tall) in front of the Charging Bull, another landmark we have near the area. I heard that she is now relocated to New York Stock Exchange in November 2018. When I visited NYC last October, she was still standing at the same spot. Well, I need to go back to NYC again and check it out, I guess :).

And if you want to see the Charging Bull, check out this photo as well. 
Will be back with his story some other time.

  1. I love the strong girl pose! I pose with cardboard cut out people, and sculptures. It's so much fun.

    I so need to get back on the WW bandwagon. So many distractions lately. Tonight I was working on a Style Guide for my sister's non profit organization. Lots of work. It's done as far as I'm concerned.

  11. Saya pernah baca berita tentang patung fearless girl ini. Sempat jadi kontroversi juga karena berhadapan dengan patung Charging Bull. Tetapi, banyak juga yang mendukung. Kabarnya akhir 2018 bakal diangkat? Bener jadi diangkat itu patungnya?
