Sherald told the New Yorker that Trans Forming Liberty “challenges who we allow to embody our national symbols—and who we erase.” She added, “It demands a fuller vision of freedom, one that includes the dignity of all bodies, all identities. Liberty isn’t fixed. She transforms, and so must we. This portrait is a confrontation with that truth.”

Let's have a little collaborative artistic fun :)

Go and find the nearest (real) flower to you, even if that means going for a little walk, and take a photo of it. Post it here in the replies.

Others: look through the replies, find a flower you like, and draw/paint/sketch/etc. it.

Here's one from me to kick it off - this is a love-in-the-mist flower from the wild flower patch in our garden
