The nonprofit, independent journalism of Common Dreams is needed now more than ever

Our journalists work hard to inform by bringing you the news that matters - which is often about how the world is. But we think the most important part of our mission is to inspire —and so we work hard to bring you the voices of visionaries who dream about how the world should be.

This is the world we live in. This is the world we cover

Because of people like you, another world is possible. There are many battles to be won, but we will battle them together—all of us. Common Dreams is not your normal news site. We don't survive on clicks. We don't want advertising dollars. We want the world to be a better place. But we can't do it alone. It doesn't work that way. We need you.

So why did you want to create this artwork to encourage LGBTI people to visit Illinois?

My main belief is the importance of public art and how it changes lives when you come across it.

It must have been incredible when you debuted at Northalsted Market Days. How was that feeling? What was it like to have thousands of people see it?

It’s my favorite thing. I’m definitely someone who wants people to experience the work I make. I really stay in the background with a lot of the stuff I do. I try to keep a lower profile just because I don’t want it to be attached to my baggage. Like, who’s this person and what it’s about. This is a message for you in that moment. And so enjoy it.

Have you lived in Illinois long?

I was born in Ohio and then we moved around. I went to school in Indiana. Eventually I moved to Chicago in 2002. So I’ve lived in the Midwest my whole life and I’ve been here about 17 years.

So what plans do you have for the future?

We just put up a couple ‘you are beautiful’ pieces on fences, and one on a building. And we are going to do more of those. And then we also have a space where we have our studio, with a store and a gallery in the front. It’s in the Avondale neighborhood at 3368 N Elston Ave.
