Using a pattern that has roots in several Ancient cultures, Meander brings together the colors from a variety of Pride flags. The small printed portraits found throughout the mural come from two sources. Blended together in harmony are linoblock images produced by citizens of Austin of themselves or loved ones as well as artist produced illustrations of persons from the Queer community who have helped moved forward the cause of equality. Scroll down this page to see galleries of all the portraits in the project.
Meander is part of the inaugural 2-D version of the City of Austin's Tempo Public Art Program. Special thanks to the Parks & Recreation department for hosting our community workshops at the Lamar Senior Center and to Midtown Ishmael Law Firm, PC for their financial support.
The most famous cat on the internet, Grumpy Cat, is incapable of conceiving of a complex idea like the organization that is Flash Collective. This is because she is a cat. Despite this ignorance, Grumpy Cat did agree to be photographed with our founder, although the celebrity was in the midst of a nap.
