About the Work

More than ever, the world needed a reminder that women deserve an equal place. That they are not to be ignored or silenced. Fearless Girl did just that. She was designed to promote State Street Global Advisor’s SHE fund: an investment fund for companies with more women in leadership. But Fearless Girl did more than get people to invest in this fund. She lived beyond advertising -- the young girl, standing up to Wall Street’s iconic, overwhelmingly masculine, Charging Bull. Instantly, Fearless Girl became a symbol of female empowerment, the icon of International Women’s Day, and a piece of powerful city art. On social media, people across the world emulated her stance as an expression of personal empowerment. Today, Fearless Girl continues to show investors, politicians, celebrities, and, most importantly, millions of fearless women and girls alike that women are not to be bullied--now, or ever.
