Artists Treading Water

The Flint Water Crisis was a devastating man-made catastrophic event which not only destroyed an infrastructure but created disease, death, and destruction in the lives of the Flint residents. Worlds were torn apart, lives were destroyed, and trust between the government and the people was completely diminished. Although, what happened was a loss of hope but what generated from it was a powerful strength to live, determination and the will to fight and the voices of the people being heard. Community authors and local artists shared their stories through artistic expression while defining how the Flint Water Crisis impacted their lives. Life size sculptures, paintings, photography, and creative writing were just a few among the beautifully illustrated art. The work clearly displayed the heartache, pain, and government corruption but also the courage, faith, and desire to create a positive change in spite of their setback. These artists are true Flint heroes.
