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.
Sponsored by a grant from
Super Saturated
Flash Collective's first fully funded exhibition, Super Saturated, opened June 1st 2017 at Flatbed Press. Building upon the subject and success of Saturated, an exhibition assembled for PrintAustin 2017, Super Saturated presented a variety of artworks in which strong use of color was a central theme. The exhibition offered a broad take on how color can support narrative structure within visual art. It was supported in part by a grant from the City of Austin’s Cultural Arts Division Community Initiatives program.
Super Saturated displayed several artists who had exhibited with FC previously, and brought new ones into the fold. As always with our exhibitions, special time was taken to identify and promote self identified female artists, persons from historically underserved groups, and well established artists who live outside of major markets.
