What was the process\/journey of creating this work?<\/strong>\n<\/p>\nOriginally, our squad tried to explore working with a professional muralist to amplify the Free the Vaccine message. After a bit of research, and Franziska’s great advice to use the Venice Art Walls, we realized we could make our own stencil. Daria designed a stencil based off of the Free the Vaccine logo that could easily be replicated by others, and we spray painted away!<\/p>\n
What were some of the responses to this work?<\/strong>\n<\/p>\nVisitors and artists at the Venice Art Walls were curious to know more about the logo design and the “Free the Vaccine for COVID-19 message.” And the artists at the wall were very kind about working around our design and ensuring that they wouldn’t cover it up (at least for the day).<\/p>\n
What would be your next steps, building on this idea, if you had a million dollars and all the time and skills in the world?<\/strong>\n<\/p>\nIf I could build on this idea, I would work with a group of professional muralists to design permanent Free the Vaccine for COVID-19 murals based in various cities across the globe.<\/p>\n
If someone else were going to make\/use\/do something like this, what advice would you give them?<\/strong>\n<\/p>\nHave fun with your designs and locations! And wheatpaste is always a great alternative to spray paint.<\/p>\n\n\n
