The street artists battling ‘mansplaining’
Cbloxx and Aylo make up the street art duo Nomad Clan, painting giant murals all over the world, including the UK’s tallest mural in Leeds.
But the pair, real names are Joy and Hayley, say they have had to deal with misogyny and ‘mansplaining’ from the public and other artists throughout their careers.
Joy, who paints under the name Cbloxx, said: “People get embarrassed because they’ll say ‘Ah nice one that, looks great our lad.
“Then you’ll turn round and they are like ‘oh, sorry!’”
“Women just want to be treated the same as guys and that’s the be all and end all of it, in my opinion,” added Hayley, who paints under the alias Aylo.
