A year ago, shortly after police murdered George Floyd in Minneapolis, mass demonstrations seeking justice for people of color dominated downtown Portland.
In the early days of what became a summer of protest, a mural appeared on the boarded up Apple Store near Pioneer Square. That mural became a local touchstone and a national symbol.
In this interview with 7x7 (a consortium of art galleries in seven Portland churches, including Trinity's Kempton Hall gallery), artist Emma Berger talks about her inspiration, artistic process, and the evolution of the street art movement that summer.
Great interview with Emma Berger! Her mural really made a statement. It reminds me of how using bold text online can help emphasize important messages on social media too.
Fascinating interview with muralist Emma Berger! As an art teacher, I appreciate learning about her creative process and how she scales designs for large spaces. Her community-centered approach to public art is truly inspiring. This celebration of artistic vision reminds me of how Poki's free online games also spark creativity - both provide colorful, engaging experiences that transform ordinary moments into opportunities for imagination and self-expression!
