100 Nude Women Welcomed Donald Trump to the Republican National Convention (NSFW)

Why target Trump specifically? It's important to note that participants came from all different backgrounds and were there for different reasons. As Tunick's statement says, "Republicans, Democrats, and all other political parties were welcome to take part reflecting their anger through art against the hateful repressive rhetoric of many in the Republican Party towards women and minorities. Trump and Pence are giving many in America the belief that is OK to hate."

Trump doesn't exactly have a stellar track record with women, and his newly-announced running mate, Indiana Governor Mike Pence, signed abortion restrictions into law that were widely seen as severe. (Many women began a movement to bombard his communication channels just to talk about their periods—an effort to really make their bodies his business.)

More than 1,800 women wound up applying to be part of the installation, which has been in the works for three years. It's interesting to note that Tunick didn't tell them exactly where it was going to take place—the situation could have been a lot more tense had it been by a security zone, for example. "Our location was secret to keep the women safe and would only allow for a small number of participants," Tunick said in a statement. "But 1,800 women would have shown up naked in front on the steps of the convention to make art."
