Don't Shoot is a raw, unflinching tribute to the lives lost to systemic racism and police brutality. Created by Dominique Silva — the contemporary Black artist known as Paperbag — this work demands that we see, that we feel, and that we refuse to look away. It is dedicated to the countless souls whose names became movements, and whose stories deserve to be remembered.
Paperbag's art lives at the intersection of social justice, grief, and resilience. Dominique creates work that speaks truth to power — bold, emotionally charged pieces that give voice to communities too often silenced. Don't Shoot is one of the most powerful expressions of that mission.
About this print:
- Museum-quality matte finish — deep, rich tones with zero glare
- Printed on heavyweight, archival-grade paper built to last
- Available in multiple sizes — from intimate to statement-making
- Ships flat, ready to frame — a thin black frame with white mat is recommended
- A meaningful piece for homes, offices, community spaces, or as a gift of solidarity
Framing tip: A simple black frame lets the weight of the imagery speak for itself. For larger prints, a floating frame gives it a gallery-wall presence worthy of the message.
This is an official print of the original Paperbag artwork Don't Shoot — a piece of social justice art that belongs on walls that stand for something.
Art that remembers. Art that resists.
