Experience the journey that artist seangarrison went on while creating “Walking On Air” – his painting done while he was outside the Hennepin County Courthouse awaiting the verdict in the George Floyd murder trial.
On May 25, 2020, George Floyd was murdered. The country and world was painted in smoke and pain. On April 20, 2021, many rejoiced and the weight of missed justice and injustice was lifted, if only for a moment. The emotions of the people were captured in real time on canvas by artist seangarrison. In Heaven or Hell: A Live Paining Experience, you can follow along on the journey he took while creating “Walking On Air” on that monumental day during that historical moment.
