FLIP is a pop-art-infused political call to action and a participatory art installation designed to bring communities together by expressing “WHAT FLIPS YOU OFF?” To express is to heal, and this platform empowers people to express in a safe environment. Participants can publicly share their issues, frustrations and concerns without judgement or consequence.

We are looking for the next location to activate FLIP. Please contact us if you are interested.

These are times of toxic polarization. The division between the Right and the Left has become so great that we are living in a fractured democracy. F-U Red Blue is a call to activate public consciousness for people to come together, despite our divergent political views, valuing “people over party”.

 Participants write and draw on copies of an extraction of the original work, F-U-Red Blue and then share their creation by taping it to a wall.

 As participants mount their “F-U” the wall quickly fills with everyone’s individual piece, generating a wall of community expression.  Boulder Creative Collective, Fall 2017

 Watching the wall fill up, mixed with people’s desire to express, I have observed that individual’s sharing their feelings with their community leads to healing.
