The mural's main message – "Financial abuse is invisible abuse" – is meant to bring to light the prevalence of women who are trapped in domestic abuse and cannot leave due to financial dependence on a partner.
It was commissioned by the The All State Purple Purse Foundation, which helps to support women gain the knowledge and financial confidence they need so they can support themselves and gain independence.
