Description
"Black Lives Matter" is painted on the pavement with various patterns. One of the letters "T" has a topographical map speckled with butterflies named after Black explorers inside the letter “T.”
Both of the “L” letters are inspired by the “Love This City” series of murals in Denver, which portray an equal, inclusive and friendly version of the Mile High City. Inside the letter “B" there are two white and two blackbirds interwoven with each other. Other letters included changing aspen trees, Colorado sunsets, abstract patterns, and wildflowers.
Altogether, 13 professional artists, a local architect, an interior designer, elementary students, high school students, college students, teachers, a 70-year-old white woman who marched in the ’60s with Martin Luther King Jr., and the wife and daughter of a local police officer participated in the creation of the mural.
