This piece was designed to honor LGBTQ+ history - "The Pink Triangle."
Duing the holocaust, prisoners in Nazi concentration camps were required to wear badges which identifed their reason for being imprisoned, and the pink triangle was used to determine gay and bisexual men, as well as transgender people. They underwent bizzare conversion torture and forced injections. After the camps were shut down at the end of WWII, many queer prisoners were re-incarceated due to the laws against homosexuality that remained in place in 1969 (and West Germany until 1994).
In the 1970s, gay liberation advocated began to reclaim the pink triangle, turning it into a symbol of protest. This design is our version of the pink triangle symbol of protest, as we stand with our LBGTQIA+ community.
