All saints, all souls

By Laura Kelly

Finding the line

S

unday morning. All Saints Day. I had spent the night at a friend’s house; a group of us were there tucked into a honeycomb of bedrooms. In the wake of the previous evening’s Halloween shenanigans, we all awoke slowly and shambled toward the kitchen to begin the sacred ritual of coffee making.

We clutched our mugs and stood around the kitchen counter. In the unhurried and enfolding presence that Sunday mornings offer, we chose to acknowledge the day by telling stories of our grandmothers. Microbursts of memory, a tumble of adjectives and then wistfulness so palpable it thickened the air. All saints? Not really. But all, we decided, doing the best they could for the times they lived in and the women that they were.

My stories were of Rita, my mother’s mother, born in 1907 and widowed 50 years later. She never remarried. My mother is her second of six; I was Rita’s first grandchild. She was a reader and a painter with the auburn hair of her father, William Koehler, a name that means charcoal burner and arcs back to Switzerland in the 1500s. I loved her fiercely and look for traces of her in the woman I have become. I look for the line.

Monday morning. All Souls’ Day. I wake at 6 a.m. as the morning light lavenders the sky. I remember sitting a year ago in the university canteen halfway around the world with my friend Nargiza. She and I taught journalism at the American University of Central Asia in Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan. Our time together was marked by conversation spurred by candid curiosity. We were other for each other, specimens of disparate cultures.

Each time we met, we played our own improvisational version of 20 Questions.

Who do you come from? Nargiza asked offhandedly. We settled our lunch trays onto the tabletop. I launched into a story about my grandparents. Before them, she said. And then before them and before them. I curled inward with nothing to say. Here in Kyrgyzstan, Nargiza

said, it is part of who we are to name and know seven generations before us. It’s our line, she told me.

Nargiza told stories of her clan and the centuries of descendants that had narrowed over time to produce the man and the woman who made her. My listening was clogged by a vivid image of an astronaut in one of those puffy white suits whose lifeline to the spaceship has been cut. Blank anguish on the face, the wide lens of empty space advancing. I felt anxious and unmoored, perilously adrift.

Seven generations before me? My frontof-mind ancestral storytelling reaches back for two generations, tops. It’s been my choice, I suppose, though I’m not sure why I’ve made it.

How is it that I don’t know my line?

It’s not for lack of material. I’ve the 16-page all caps family history my kooky Aunt Sis wrote decades ago, chronicling my mother’s side of the family. “Our forebears were a mixed and varied lot, ranging from doctors,

lawyers and gentlemen farmers to immigrants and illiterates,” she writes in her opening. Sis collected clocks, had an ever present swarm of Scottish terriers around her ankles, and pointed her finger when she talked.

I have my cousin Kevin Walsh, a genealogist, writer and teacher, who created and maintains the KellyFamilyNetwork.com website, which parses the vast spread of Kellys I’ve descended from. I’ve fluttered about into my aunt’s stern interpretation of my maternal family tree and pecked into my cousin’s website from time to time. But neither has ever held much sway for me.

Until now. Now I’ve begun to consider the saints and the souls making the trees that bore the fruit of me. Perhaps I’ve been blasé about my heritage because of my inherent Americanness. I am a disciple of invention and mobility, a person more familiar with the larger world pond than her own gene pool. Maybe my lack of interest can be attributed to my identification as independent above all else. Maybe it’s my

childlessness, my wanderlust, my zodiac sign.

I’m not as interested in knowing the why not until now as I am freshly awakened by my desire to know more.

So I turn myself away from the seductive distractions of the present, the lull of the future.

I begin to look more often over my shoulder at the past and its haze, its obscure and plentiful clues. I am compelled, eager to sift through it all.

In honor of the ones who came before me, I am looking for the line. My line. It is, I believe now, a worthy and necessary quest.

Pinkt

By Kelly Poe Wilson

M

y kids have spent the last five years going to an art school, so sometimes I forget there are still people out there who actually care about the color of other people’s hair. Or whether or not they have hair. Or what manner they wear it if they do have it. (I have been out of my grandmother’s kitchen and away from her genteel manners for many more than five years, so it is a little less surprising to me that anyone—especially adults—would think it was polite to make a comment about somebody else’s appearance.

Or at least a comment other than, “Aren’t you just the cutest thing?!”)

Still, it came as something of a shock to me when a friend of mine’s young son was made to sit out his class’s dance performance because he arrived at school that day with pink hair.

Why did he have pink hair? Who knows. Breast Cancer Awareness? Gender identity exploration? Or maybe even the most likely answer: Hello? Pink. Hair. Anyway, sit out the dance performance he did. And while subsequent consultations with the school administration (“consultations” being the polite word we are going with here) revealed that the school, in fact, did not have a policy allowing for the exclusion of alternatively coiffed danseurs, by that point it was too late—the performance was over and would never be repeated again. At least not at that particular time and place.

Harping on the hair color Some people are probably thinking, What’s the big deal? It was just a grade school dance performance. But the fact that it was not a big deal is kind of the point; it was just a grade school dance performance. It’s not like he was a dancer in the corps of the Royal Ballet showing up for a performance of Swan Lake with pink hair. In that case I think it would have been entirely reasonable for the dancer to have been told he had to sit this one out (and possibly all of the next ones, as well), because that performance is a big deal.

A grade school performance at a local festival? Not so much.

Of course, big deal or little one, it would’ve been great if the moment had not been used as an excuse to shun those who were different than the rest, but rather had been turned into an actual teachable moment. (I mean turn it into a teachable moment in a good way; it was definitely a teachable moment in a bad way. It was the moment my friend’s son learned that people with power don’t always behave rationally

Of course, big deal or little one, it would’ve been great if the moment had not been used as an excuse to shun those who were di�ferent than the rest, but rather had been turned into an actual teachable moment.

or kindly—which, I suppose, is a lesson that we all need to learn eventually … I guess.)

But actually, what I meant by teachable moment is that it would have been great if, instead of excluding him, the class had been given the opportunity to ask him questions, like, “That’s a really interesting thing you did with your hair. Want to tell us about it?” Or, “Does anyone here know people who look or dress differently than you do?

How does that make you feel about them?

About yourself?” Yeah, that would have been great.

As it was, however, there was no conversation at all, because he was sitting in the audience while the rest of his class performed. Of course, there might have been conversations the next day at school, but I’m thinking that scenario wasn’t too likely—unless you count the conversation his mother likely had with the school administration again, the conversation about how her bright, kind, funny, quirky son would soon be bright, and kind, and funny, and quirky … in somebody else’s classroom.

Pink hair and all.

One of our returning favorite bands—welcome back!—is Portland Cello Project. The good ol’ PCP mixes genres, blurred musical lines and performs a rare kind of concert, wowing audiences all over the country with the instruments of their namesake going places they’ve never gone before. No two shows are alike, with a repertoire now numbering more than 900 pieces of music. Cello Project’s stage setup ranges from the very simple ensemble of four to six cellos to shows with 12 cellos and full choirs, winds, horns, and numerous percussion players. The group’s song possibilities contain a wide variety of music, from classical pieces and movie themes, to jazz standards, to pop music covers and hip-hop (even Kayne West gets some string-and-bow treatment). The group tries to perform an entirely new program on every series of performances.

Almost all of the music performed by the Portland Cello Project is arranged by members of the group. According to a note from the Project, the plan is “to bring the cello to places you wouldn’t normally hear it, to play music on the cello you wouldn’t normally hear played on the instrument and to build bridges across all musical communities by bringing a diverse assortment of musical collaborators on stage with them.” Catch them at Coconino Center for the Arts, 2300 N Ft. Valley Road. Doors for the all-ages show open at 6:30 p.m. and the show is at 7:30 p.m. Tickets are $22 in advance and $25 the day of the show.

hese cats were supposed to play it cool in Flag not so long ago, but due to scheduling conflicts, they didn’t quite bring the good noise they’re so well known for. Fortunately, as fate would have it, they’re circling back around for another shot and bringing their joyous love to us all. In short, Pimps of Joytime throw down, hard. Seriously, energy on high is the name of the game for this five-piece outfit that can’t help but bring the dance machine. Look no further than “Janxta Funk!” the group’s super groovy first track off their 2011 album of the same name. Or, for a change of pace, dial up the mambo-laden track “Bonita” off 2008’s High Steppin. However you chalk it up, really, any of their songs deliver funky grooves that are sure to get dancing feet moving and induce lots and lots of sweat.

Rooted in soul, funk and afrobeat tunes from New Orleans and the DJ culture in Brooklyn, Pimps of Joytime formed at the hands of multi-instrumentalist and producer Brian J in 2005, and since have stormed stages around the country and brought their audacious sound to savvy audiences thirsty for a good time. Now, three albums in with the release of their latest offering in April, Jukestone Paradise, the ride only keeps moving forward in great fashion. Get funked in the face at the Green Room, 15 N. Agassiz. Music starts at 8 p.m. with special guest Con Brio. Tickets are $10 in advance and $15 the day of the show 226-8669. www.pimpsofjoytime.com.

Remember the first-ever comic superhero? It was Mandrake the Magician back in 1934, what with his hypnotic gestures and what have you, four years before Superman’s creation popularized the superhero. Since then, superheroes have gone on to become an iconic part of our culture and, most importantly, a role model and spark of creativity for youngsters. But, for all of the big names, there are those under-the-radar superheroes, like Nicolas, who a young superhero in search of his inner strength, and focus of Reading!

HotPicks from the realm of river and beyond. Included in this year’s lineup is River of Eden by Pete McBride, a journey into the Fijian Highlands to discover why the locals said “no” to easy money from resource extraction, and how they turned to tourism to fund a conservation area that protects one of the most beautiful rivers on Earth. Also in the lineup is Connected to the Canyon.

Produced by Freshwaters Illustrated and premiering at this event, it tells the story of youth from around the country who participated in meaningful science with the U.S. Geologic Survey and Grand Canyon Youth. Another one to mention among the roster is Mirror River. This short time-lapse of a Colorado River source-to-sea project offers a snapshot of the diversity in landscape, river and management of the Colorado. The event takes place at Coconino Center for the Arts from 5–10 p.m. and features a silent auction including gear, gift certificates, artwork and more. Tickets are $15 or $40 for a family.

Audience Outreach Tour program brings theatre to thousands of kiddos in rural and underserved communities, and set off again this September with a stop in Flagstaff. Recommended for preschool aged children through sixth grade, this production will be performed at the Doris Harper-White Community Playhouse, 11 W. Cherry. It’s free, however, those who can are asked to bring a children’s book to be donated to the reading room at the Flagstaff Family Food Center. Books will be available in the lobby for any child in attendance to take home. The theatre troupe from CRT will also perform the show at STAR School, Puente de Hozho, and Killip Elementary on Fri and Mon. Seating is limited.

SATURDAY | 11.7 RAPID REWARDS

As the gloomy darkness of the hard winter falls upon us, it’s good to know that we can live the glory of the Colorado River through the Grand Canyon, at least vicariously. One great way to do that is through the 16th annual Rivers & Reels FUNdraiser, a Grand Canyon Youth event that features a number of films

In truth, we could use this entire Hot Pick to describe the difference between true and false north, geographic and magnetic poles, axis rotations and why the Earth’s magnetic field is not static—but we’ll save that for another day. All you really need to know in the here and now is that False North, as it pertains to this publication and our town’s spot on the globe, is a groovy four-piece alt-rock outfit who—though not British themselves, we think—follow suit and buzz-chimed sound to such bands as the Strokes, Arctic Monkeys and Kooks. It was late summer of 2013 when it all came together. Conner Libera (backing vocals, bass) approached Ryan Orr (lead guitar) and Sean Wilson (vocals, guitar) proposing they, you know, form a band. The two quickly agreed, and Conner recruited his former roommate, Greg Grandlienard, to play drums. Pretty standard fare. Soon after came a demo, then a following, then live show after live show, and more people showed up. Two years later we have their debut album, Burning Fast—12 tracks that pour on the melodic and harmonic rock goodness. Catch them perform live at Firecreek Coffee Co., 22 E. Rte. 66, during the official CD release party for the new jams. The show is free and music starts at 8:30 p.m. 774-2266. www.false-north.com.

SUNDAY | 11.8 CAPOEIRA CONTROLS THE DANCE FLOOR

“Look, they’re break dance fighting!” Mugatu declares as Hansel famously battles the Evil DJ for control of the Crossfader, Herbie Hancock’s “Rockit” and the catwalk at the end of Zoolander, the 2001 classic film that taught children to read good and the rest of us to be really, really good looking. But long before Blue Steel and Herbie or any of that, way back around the 17th century, capoeira was born. Jokingly considered by modern minds to be actual break dance fighting, the martial art and ritual combat dance is in fact a primary expression of African continuum—specifically KongoAngolan—in Brazil that developed during slavery in the South American country. Fast forward to today, and groups like Barracão D’Angola Serra Grande Brazil have preserved the traditional art form. To celebrate that, Flag’s own Centro Capoeira Angola Ouro Verde Flagstaff welcomes special guests Mestre Cabello Caobijuba’ and Mestre Tisza Coelho of Barracão D’Angola for Dance Batukeira: African Brazilian Evening, an explosive and dazzling night of African-Brazilian music, percussion, Capoeira Angola, and dance. See all the powerful, quick and complex kicks, spins and highly mobile techniques you can handle at the Coconino Center for the Arts, 2300 N. Ft. Valley Road. Doors open at 6:30 p.m. and the show gets going at 7 p.m. Tickets are $10 for the general public, $5 for students with a valid student ID, and children ages 10 and under are free. 779-2300. www.flagartscouncil.org.

Speaking an unspoken language

By Andrew Wisniewski

O

n this week’s cover of Flag Live we feature The Sound of Flight mural

by Sky Black and the Mural Mice.

No doubt you’ve likely laid eyes upon it, or even seen them covered head to toe in paint, hard at work on the east wall of the Orpheum Theater applying brush stroke after brush stroke with the utmost precision. For nearly two years the trio has dedicated themselves to leaving their artistic mark in Flagstaff and the state with what is likely the largest mural in Arizona.

At the onset of the project, Black approached me about feature coverage to help get the good word out and aid with fundraising efforts as the three artists stepped up on the scaffolding to accomplish their goal. But I was hesitant.

Not because I didn’t love what they were doing—it was to be (and is) a wonderful addition to a local art scene that continues to see talented artists find the spotlight.

My hang up was that there wasn’t much of a story. There also wasn’t a mural, just a concept of what it would ultimately look like. In my mind, the story would come at the end, after countless hours spent on the wall and any challenges surfaced.

Needless to say, we waited, the mural took shape, and the story presented itself.

In reading the story, one thing that stuck out to me was the number of times the building was vandalized during the project: a half-dozen times. Not one of those times was the painting hit, which the artists say they saw as a sign of respect. And that got me thinking about a story a friend and photographer here in town shared with me a while back.

During his grad school days in San Francisco, he and an art school buddy left their own paint-free medium of street art on a blank billboard in the city. For as long as they could remember, the billboard was white, occasionally tagged, but never with any real advertisements on it.

One day, mid-day, in broad daylight, they dressed up in painter’s onesies with an empty five-gallon bucket, rollers and a ladder, and climbed up to the billboard looking the part of workers from the company who owned it. Dead center on the billboard they installed, with screws and a frame, a night photo of a garage in Tahoe (not really to send a message, just

8

fl aglive.com || Nov. flaglive.com Nov. 5–11, 5–11, 2015 2015

to put something up). On the bottom right corner of the billboard, they stenciled a number for a burner phone with the idea of hopefully getting feedback. One girl called and said she thought it was a great idea. Another guy, a neighbor, during the installation of the photograph, complained that nobody had ever done anything with the billboard, and that it would probably get tagged or painted over anyway.

And that’s exactly what happened, sort of.

Later that night the two friends went back to document their work to find that a graffiti artist had tagged right below the photograph. They were thrilled to see that someone had already interacted with it. Over the following weeks they returned to find more and more unique tags around but never on the photograph itself. Then, eventually, an artist applied a large, colorful throw up that read: “CEAPS” (Corporations Evolve As People Squander).

My friend, with no prior knowledge of graffiti culture or how covering up other artist’s work worked, had a renowned graffiti artist friend in the area clue him in on the underground language. The fact that the initial marks were made around his piece was considered a sign of respect.

In his mind, it became a collaboration. But the fact that CEAPS (a big street artist in the San Fran area, as it turns out) covered up the photo was not necessarily a sign of disrespect, but rather, that the artist was perhaps saying it’s now his turn.

Of course, this is but a single word in a conversation that’s been going on since the 1970s in New York when the graffiti and street art subculture started, and likely even longer. But it’s a fascinating language; a strange and cool form of communication between artists and strangers. And because it’s unspoken, it’s learned through doing.

Like the original portrait of John Lennon on the Lennon Wall in Prague, hidden by decades of paint, there are layers to the conversation, many of which most will never peel back. And, obviously, this is not to invite tagging— there’s a line that exists and should not be crossed between rogue vandalism of private property and commissioned public art. It’s about respect, and the intrigue of the unspoken language.

‘B

ond, James Bond.” Iconic words from the master of espionage, 007. Is there anyone out there that doesn’t like James Bond? Certainly there are, but in general it seems the Bond franchise has something to offer just about everyone. Unless you have a very specific taste in movies, like exclusively watching romantic comedies or documentaries, a Bond film is going to have something appealing to you. Action, adventure, thrilling tales of deception and international intrigue are all par for the course.

It’s perhaps the most successful film franchise in history, depending on the measuring stick. It certainly has plenty of entries, clocking in at least 24 (there are two Bond films that don’t always make the list: one a spoof; one a victim of a legal rights dispute). That’s more installments than Harry Potter, The Fast and the Furious, and the Star Wars films all combined. The Marvel Cinematic Universe is quickly gaining with somewhere in the neighborhood of 20 films, but I don’t think the comparison holds up, considering Marvel’s extensive cast of leading characters. It’s by no means the most. Hopalong Cassidy boasts 66 films in its franchise and the Chinese folk hero Wong Fei-hung can be seen as the main character in 89 movies.

Financially, Bond comes in fourth after Marvel, Harry Potter, and Star Wars. Not a bad position to be in, especially considering the Bond franchise shows no signs of slowing down. We’ve been treated to a new Bond film every year for more than 50 years now, and can likely expect the same thing for the next 50 years.

The Bond films have the draw of being familiar without the danger of being too closely tied in with one another. Their episodic nature makes it easy to miss a film in the series and not feel lost when the next

Miss an installment of The Hunger Games and you have a decent chance of being lost when the next film comes out.

One huge factor in the franchise’s longevity is that the Bond films had already undergone recasting and retooling a number of times before the current wave of constant reboots and redos began coming out of Hollywood. Want to recast The Hulk, Batman, or reboot Spiderman? Everyone wants a piece of you then. Recasting James Bond and giving him a new modern story arc to deal with?

Nobody even bats an eye. Daniel Craig comes in as the sixth actor to take the role of Bond, and is certainly not going to be the last.

MUSIC

BY DOUGLAS MCDANIEL

War on the blues

The Yawpers update your father’s blues with a punk-metal ferocity

A

standard conversation with someone espousing a lifelong passion for guitar-based rock ‘n’ roll might go like this: “What do you think of music today?” says the first, with the response being “it sucks,” or, “I can’t think of one good new band today.” As long-time Village Voice music critic Robert Christgau recently put it, while espousing the primacy of hip-hop and world music, if you are into guitar-based rock, which is to say, the blues turned up, then you are “s*** out of luck.” And this is more than American Idol disease.

If you scan the zeitgeist of such modern music web outlets as Pitchfork.com, you might learn that all music began with David Bowie and was perfected by Sonic Youth. The site’s collective vibe about a miraculous number of new performers, none of whom you’ve ever heard of (I for one am pretty sure that all rock began with Robert Johnson and was then appropriated by Elvis and Mick) pretty much eschews the blues. Steve Earle, after releasing the album Terraplane Blues earlier this year, said recently he couldn’t understand why some critics said it was “derivative.” How can an approach to expression that snaked its way into the 20th century to change the world’s tune, well delivered on a raw Dukes’ recording, be derivative, instead of traditional, Earle asks. One wonders: like Fox News Papa Bill O’Reilly’s mournful “War on Christmas,” is there a war on the blues?

Well, if there is, the Denver-based band the Yawpers might be able to turn the tide. Or, a lot more bands like the power-trio would. Even lead singer and songwriter Nate Cook has felt the sting of the war on the blues on their new record, American Man, released just last week on the Bloodshot label. He says some of the early reviews criticized the new release—“some bad reviews”—for some of the same reasons as what Earle yawped about as being “derivative.”

“Our music has been a paradigm for the better part of the 20th century,” Cook says, agreeing that after all that time, there might now be a “backlash.”

But blues-based rock, now charged up by a new generation with punk and heavy metal running through its veins, is in good hands with the Yawpers, who are capable of adding a fresh intelligence to the lyrics and, knowing how to build the momentum, to produce mountains of focused and gritty blues-bashed goodness like only a great three-piece can.

The really scary thing about the Yawpers is they do hard-edged Americana with two acoustic guitars and drums. The low grinds of the two guitars make you feel like there’s bass there, when there isn’t, and cascades of slide guitar riffs make it hard to believe the instrument hadn’t been modified for Zeppedup electric amps by R.L. Burnside. The record, produced fully live by Johnny Hickman, the guitarist for Cracker, has a crackling authenticity, with the teamwork for pacing and volumeheavy youthful abandon reminiscent of one of their heroes and musical forebears, the Meat Puppets. Reviewers have taken amazing leaps to describe their sound, most of it having to do with dirt, blood, beer, cavernous bars or the ’70s bands Mountain, MC5 and Blue Cheer (who knew?). But the Yawpers’ Cook leaves all of that journalistic poetry splicing to greater minds, saying reviews of music are “like trying to describe architecture.”

Yes, the Yawpers dish out punked-up blues with a thought in its head, lyrically speaking.

Cook says he wasn’t sure about how the band’s name aesthetic would work out, but he’s now much more comfortable with the fact the name came from a poem by Walt Whitman, from “Leaves of Grass”: “I sound my barbaric yawp over the roofs of the world.” Linking the pre-literate age of America to the current post-literate, in a world neutron bombed with musical ditties suited for waiting in line at the store to buy the newest smart watch, Cook says the Denver music scene, where waves of folkies had been coming out snack food crisp, is finally breaking away into a more rumbling, rocking era. Great sounds will always float over the land of just plain stupid, and yawping frequently seems to be the cure.

Regarding Whitman, Cook now says the band name works because the title, and their music, is about “the blessed individual. The individual as sacrament.”

As in: “The death of the individual,” says Cook. “It is an intentionally brash record, but it’s not outwardly un-PC. It’s not a manifesto, but it does draw from a set of guidelines with songs about the state of the individual in the Western World.”

The title track and a song about how real freedom comes when you can work “Nine to Five,” all feature themes of the vacated belief that not only can a single individual not make a difference, a person cannot even be an individual. Not, at least, in the epic American way of thinking about it. With the tough economic backdrop, he sings of the burned out land: “This is my home but I’m a stranger here/If I had any left I’d cry American tears.”

Cook grew up in a small town near San Antonio, Texas, that he described as a “guntoting, right wing” dystopia. So he’s picked up a few things about how yearning and desperation are two sides of the same coin. He attended classes at Northern Arizona University 11 years ago before moving on to Colorado, where he latched onto the recession-era bumcore sound of Denver’s Colfax Avenue music scene and such bands as Bluebird Theater regulars American Relay, which blasted walls of Jimi Hendrix style blues with just drums and guitar. “I never met them,” Cook says, “but I did see them play.”

Another banjo-and-washboard minimalist folk-riot, Reverend Peyton’s Big Damn Band, also fits the organic elements inspiring the Yawpers assault on American roots rock. A small band, which didn’t evolve with a bass because there wasn’t anyone around to play it by the time they were doing shows, is just good economic sense.

Cook had adopted his parents’ love for Bob Dylan, the Beatles, Neil Young, and especially Bruce Springsteen, and now there’s a lot of the Boss in the way he creates characters for his common-man themes on American Man. “I always had an interest in doing proletarian music with more of a literary slant,” he says.

“We have a twisted take on the blues, a more high-minded approach to the blues. We like recording things totally live, and for whatever reason that has worked out for us.”

Sky Black and the Mural Mice make their biggest mark yet

By Diandra Markgraf | Photos by Taylor Mahoney

A

trickle of passersby stop mid step to snap a quick photo of what they may or may not understand is history unfolding before their eyes, hypnotized at first by the work completed last summer on the Orpheum Theater’s eastern wall. Monsoon rains have poured and temperatures have soared while Sky Black and the Mural Mice, R.E. Wall and Margaret Dewar, perched on scaffolding or crouched in the rocks to make their biggest mark yet. It unfolds as a living story that has embraced community and transformation of one alleyway’s peeling paint into an example of public fine art.

More than two years of planning and painting have ticked away, and now they are down to the wire. The trio has consumed 150 gallons of high-quality acrylic paint logged in millions of brush strokes on their 4,500 square foot canvas. The newest artistic focal point of downtown Flagstaff now towers above Aspen Street—what all accounts point to as the biggest mural in the entire state of Arizona—The Sound of Flight.

EYES TO SEE Since summer of 2014, thousands have come to know the exquisitely-detailed grand piano teeming with bright light and a rainbow-colored menagerie of birds. Their eyes trace the aviary pattern guiding them toward the San Francisco Peaks and the gargantuan figures at the mural’s center: a three-story-high representation of Michelangelo’s David and a woman in a red dress with her arm draped around her dynamic companion. She is the lyrical muse of the piece—the model for which was Black’s sister—and bears witness to the mural’s southern canyonlands.

Late morning light plays off the painted rock walls that mimic the Grand Canyon at sunset, illuminating The Thinker and a gray wolf howling at the sky. All manner of intricacies envelop 16 flaglive.com | Nov. 5–11, 2015 16

the canyon, from local flora and fauna to a hot air balloon bidding farewell with a wave of black smoke.

Black explains The Sound of Flight’s impetus was a desire to create a large-scale oil painting. Using not a single spray can, the artists brushed layers upon layers of color and shadow to play with viewers’ perspective. In the final hours before the ribbon is cut on what comprises more than eight months of continuous painting, six months of fundraising and all that time with the community cheering them on, the painters are spread across the brick façade Black conceptualized on a panel more than two years ago.

At 23, Black already has painted a name for himself in town and abroad with, murals around the Midwest. One 2014 solo show at the Coconino Center for the Arts, My Beautiful Friends, captured audiences with surrealist-style oil paintings that examine the edges of dreams and reality.

But the young artist knew he wanted to make a bigger splash in town, and took his idea to the Orpheum’s co-owner, Chris Scully, who green-lit the project followed by City approval.

With a little convincing, Black learned he would need help to bring this project to life. He called on the Mural Mice who brought their extensive experience in paint and fundraising to the table.

Their work from 10 years as a duo can be seen across Arizona from Mesa to Prescott. In their three years living in Flagstaff, the Mice have dedicated four murals so far, including the Route 66 scenes on the south wall of Lumberyard Brewing Co., and are always up for a new challenge.

“We’re raising the bar of public art, so it’s not just reserved for alleyways. It’s the finest art we can make in the downtown area, which is a tourist attraction and it’s good for everybody,” Wall says of this and other mural projects.

The imagery and lyrical nature of the painting, Black says, were designed to incorporate the canvas’s theatrical elements as well as uplift and inspire visitors through bursts of color and whimsy.

The migration toward the canyon links two worlds— and really tested the painters’ experience, he adds.

“I thought that’s something everybody would feel good about stumbling upon as a mural,” Black explains. “Plus we have power in numbers and there’s this tremendous amount of energy. That goes with the title, too.”

That inspiration shines through, and the artists have experienced that every single day when a veritable paparazzi stands on the street and starts snapping photos of the mural. Schools have even brought field trips to see it. But the excitement and buzz, Wall says, is all they could ask for.

EARS TO LISTEN The community supported this public art effort in force to the tune of $75,000. Ten percent of the funds came from two grants supported by BBB tax revenue from the City of Flagstaff, Flagstaff Arts Council and through a Beautification in Action grant. The other 90 percent came from 88 local business sponsorships and community members through two Orpheum-held benefit concerts and two Kickstarter crowdsource campaigns.

The Grand Canyon Wolf Recovery Project became a fiscal agent for the project, and in return, Echo, the gray wolf found in the Grand Canyon and later killed in Utah last year, guards the canyonlands.

“There are lots of little things in here that are significant to individuals, but those stories will move around and be shared,” Dewar says.

“I think that’s the best thing about public art, is you’re always painting in public. People access you and ask questions and make suggestions— and you can include it.”

Some theme-defying suggestions like superheroes and dragons naturally wound up off the wall. But with viewers always talking behind their backs, some suggestions were bound to be immortalized in paint, especially with the fundraising opened up to the community.

“We’ve had several people painting birds with us this year and sponsoring birds, which gets people involved and they have ownership over it, too,” Black says.

Mayor Jerry Nabours, who minored in art at NAU, also made his mark with the bright blue bird to the right of the scaffolding’s counterweight. Even over the phone, it’s clear he is exceedingly proud of his addition—something he can always visit and remember.

Nabours explains that what public art truly is can vary. While some past public projects have failed, murals are a welcome addition and specific reason for dedicating BBB tax revenue to benefit the public in the way only art can.

“It takes a downtown alley and makes it a showplace,” Nabours says. “You can’t beat that. It is so detailed and involved; it’s the kind of mural you can look at for a long time. It just makes downtown that much more interesting.”

Thanks to one Kickstarter pledge level, other guests brought the count of cameopainted birds to almost 20 out of the near 200 soaring across the wall. The falcon, Black says, brought a whole family together. With the artist mixing the color and numbering out the spaces, they were able to paint by number.

Others are memory birds, sponsored by families who’ve lost loved ones. The hawk is dedicated to Black’s high school friend, Thomas Lang, who died in 2013. Black adds, “It was really meaningful to paint that bird for him.”

But the project has not been without stress on personal and elemental levels. The artists learned to read and talk to each other while torrential downpours glued reference papers stories high up the wall. The first year they worked, Dewar says, the building was vandalized a half-dozen times. Last year, the door in the middle of the wall was tagged, but the artists saw it as a sign of respect the mural itself wasn’t hit.

“I think a lot of public space, the way it’s treated or the way it looks—that energy is reciprocated back at it,” Dewar says. “Now this area is becoming more like community space.

They’re just going to treat it better because they’ve seen the work that goes into it.”

The artists infused as much of the town in beauty and symbolism as possible to make it a piece that truly works for the public. Black explains they’ve produced the highest-quality work they could have prepared, learning from the piece and each other along the way.

“For me it’s a huge honor. I’m feeling so good about making it happen and following it through, and finding these two to bring it to the next level,” Black says. And even as they speak of their hard work, one passerby shouts, “Good work!” And after two years, countless photos and conversations, they still fire back, in earnest, “Thank you!”

Join The Sound of Flight community dedication at the mural on the east wall of the Orpheum Theater, 15 W. Aspen, Sat, Nov. 7 from 2–5 p.m.

On the Wall All roads lead to the Indigo Art Market

‌F

A funky tradition And because of the rotating coterie, this month one new artist, McKenzie Dankert, will display her original drawings. “She is super talented. She hasn’t been out there a whole lot, but her stuff is advanced for where she is in her artistic career,” Quick says, noting the quality of the work lining the aisles.

The Green Room’s large space also offers gallery views at the front of the building, and highlights a rotating selection of featured artists. This month, Quick and locally-based painter Erica Fareio will share the gallery walls.

While Quick has explored many facets of the art world, and her most visible work illustrates upcoming concerts and multi-media shows at the Green Room and Pepsi Amphitheater. Her self-designed show posters have become highly collectible, and her piece for the rock band Widespread Panic was printed in their posterbook collection last year. Quick demonstrates her style, also, in hand-painted interpretations of nature and the human body.

From her mini-series of bright aspen trees to peacocks and ravens, the artist is always challenging herself to dig deeper into her mind’s eye.

aithful readers, you may have noticed On the Wall disappeared from our ArtWalkcolored pages for a couple months. We took some time off to wind down the summer and fill up on the veritable cornucopia of events the artistic folks of this town have to offer.

We’ve seen the Northern Arizona Book Festival reanimate. October was cause to celebrate Breast Cancer Awareness. Even the Fires of Change swept through the air. But with winter apparently, and very suddenly upon us, along with a fresh dusting of (perfect snowballmaking) snow, the time is right to get back into the swing of presenting the tiniest sampling of all Flagstaff’s First Friday ArtWalk has to offer and inspire.

Indigo children For every first Friday since February, the ArtWalker’s constant quest to meander every downtown nook and alleyway has brought delighted visitors to the Green Room’s doorstep. Inside, aisles of expertly-assembled booths and tables display colorful masterpieces that stretch the gamut of shapes, sizes and forms. This is the Indigo Art Market.

Indigo was the brain child of local artist and educator Kayley “Monster” Quick, but others help and reach out—a community effort, she adds, where the caring treatment is reciprocated among participants, and everyone does his or her part.

Quick explains in addition to offering opportunities for exploration on behalf of art appreciators, artists’ incentive is an open space teeming with joy in a lively atmosphere. There is no set-up fee and the Green Room offers free use of the space, ensuring the artists themselves get to keep the total revenue of each piece they sell. In this vein, Indigo acts as a marketing venture, too, where artists can discover new ways to interact with the eager public.

“We have about eight to 12 artists at any given time,” Quick says. “It’s a fun and social setting with a lively atmosphere and music playing throughout the night.”

This one-stop shop has hosted swaths of creatives at all points in their careers, whether Northern Arizona University students just starting out or professional artists like Emma Gardner and Jill Sans of Burley Fish Tattoo, 18

both of whom have been with the market from the start and continue to bring their signature styles to the space.

The bustling market mixing traditional media with the eclectic offers original paintings and prints alongside a diverse array of

pottery and other ceramic creations. Handmade jewelry and other funky treats like Gardner’s skull-shaped Christmas tree ornaments and Siera Smyth’s and Rachel Grieg’s pop-culture infused paintings and drawings will also line the shop.

FLG by Erica Fareio.

Fareio’s work can be seen at galleries around town and beyond, and fetches constant gazes with her color-packed pieces that employ both watercolor and ink. Many, in fact, were created in plain air at the locations of her subjects, often dotted along stops on the Colorado River with the Grand Canyon. With color, whimsy and a burst of nature’s vibrations, Fareio captures surreal scenes within a canvas.

During Indigo, she will also have on hand newly printed 5 x 7-inch postcards. The vibrant drawings are printed on 100-percent recycled paper and envelopes, and feature some of her most famous Grand Canyon scenes.

Quick says the future of Indigo Art Market is packed with potential to evolve the space and the show. Though there is no date set yet, the plan is to hold an elephant-themed event, which will act as a springboard for art as a fundraising model as well. Quick, who also leads and performs with the Circlet Sisters hoop dancers, will enlist the help of her performance- and circus-art friends to collaborate on a multi-media show in honor and support of wild elephants and more as we watch the horizon for more from Indigo.

The Indigo Art Market begins Fri, Nov. 6 at 5:30 p.m. To learn more about the market and participating artists, visit their Facebook page.

What lurks beneath?

Can get right Guess who’s pushing for prison reform?

Aging water pipes have Flagstaff officials scrambling for more funds to catch up on repairs

‘T

oo many people are behind bars that don’t belong there,” declared a group demanding major reforms to America’s throw-‘em-all-in-jail, mass imprisonment policies.

For nearly 50 years, politicians and prosecutors have pushed a no-mercy, “tough on crime” mantra, which has proven to be grossly unjust, exorbitantly expensive, counterproductive, and needlessly destructive to families and whole communities. “We need less incarceration, not more,” the reform group recently proclaimed. Of course, you’d expect the ACLU to urge a humane and just approach to crime and punishment—only, this is not the ACLU. Called Law Enforcement Leaders to Reduce Crime and Incarceration, it’s made up of 130 of our country’s top crime fighters, including big-city police chiefs, sheriffs, and prosecutors from coast to coast. These are officials who’ve built careers on the harsh, autocratic practice of police sweeps and mass arrests—especially targeting impoverished communities of color. They know the difference between actually reducing crime and posturing as “crime-busters” by hoking up charges and hustling thousands of people into prisons for minor offenses.

By Jim Hightower

When such a broad group steps forward to say they were wrong, that the rush to prison makes crime worse—that’s a possible sea change in policing philosophy. Indeed, they’re calling for (1) more alternatives to imprisonment, especially for addicts and the mentally ill; (2) reclassifying many non-violent crimes as misdemeanors and reforming ridiculous mandatory sentencing laws; and (3) a wholesale effort to repair the dangerous rift and loss of trust between police and the communities they’re intended to serve.

As one of the group’s leaders put it: “This is just common sense.” To see the group’s report and get involved in its promising push for reform, go www.brennancenter.org.
