This is the Mural Idea I will be creating for World Pride 2014. My site to create this work will be O'Grady's on Church St. My plan is to create the work digitally and have it printed onto the walls using a tattoo art process.

The Mural Idea references Gran Fury's Kissing does not Kill poster and will have silhouetted images of Kissers that hold the texts, anthologies, novels, magazines etc that make visible the lives of queers.

Part of this project includes a request that people share with me the texts, novels, anthologies that sustained them as they were coming out and were seminal to understanding their lives and experiences as queers. I will then add those novels/ texts to the mural silhouettes.
