The Girls on Bikes series by London's INSA features but one girl from Los Angeles. Kristina from LA, thank you for being you. Picture via INSA. Full description of the project:

An ongoing public installation project.Working with volunteer models, bikes (INSA’s current preferred icon of commodified culture), and large scale painted walls INSA creates momentary installations in public spaces.In this set of photographic works INSA orchestrates a conflicting dialogue between all the elements and explicitly subordinates the value of his own street art to both the possessed object of the bike and the overtly sexualized female presence. Thus questioning our individual perceptions of ownership of public space, of sexuality and of belonging(s).
