Many Italian-Americans use the word Agita to describe a state of irritation or extreme annoyance… Ross says, “Artistic Agita is a self-made term describing a form of art impossible to ignore. I feel if there’s something annoying, irritating or agitating it’s impossible to ignore, very similar to a feeling of heartburn, I want the artwork I create to be impossible to ignore.”
Art Against Apathy is a movement from the mind of Artist/Activist/Survivor, Ross “Dickie” Pierro using various venues and multiple mediums to change the world in the loudest, most creative way possible.

From written to spoken, and sketched n doodled to inked, oiled and everything in-between, here we share with you the art that moves us the most and the incredible people sharing their souls to make a change!
