Pride

“This installation highlights iconic LGBTQ+ figures in a colorful memorial to all of their hard work building the community into what it is today. Color is such an important concept within LGBTQ+ spaces, it represents the massive amount of diversity that the community has, but also the boldness we have within us.”

Eliot Schlaack is an artist and student from St. Joseph, MI. He works in ink and collage, and his work combines humor with sociology and psychology.
