Installed in unexpected places like traffic light buttons, her playful work invites the public to engage and confront their discomfort, sparking reactions from laughter to disapproval. Her growing online community, Urban Nipple, fosters a space for discussion around body autonomy, intersectionality, and gender equality. But when social media platforms begin removing her content, Michelle and the community she's cultivated are faced with the harsh realities of gendered censorship. At its heart, Urban Nipple reveals how outdated online policies continue to impact women, queer people, and other marginalised communities. Written by
