Choose ART was the name of a 2012 Burning Man art installation by Meps Schulte and Philip Wilson that showcased the work of 16 international artists. We encouraged people who didn’t think of themselves as artists to reconsider that view.
As a result of that experience, I realized that I was one of those people! I embarked on a mission to Choose ART and help others embrace their inner artist.
Where to find Meps’ art
Meps’ art has been displayed in Florida, Georgia, and online galleries. You can purchase pieces like the distinctive “Happy Spot People” on Redbubble.
If you’re in the Tampa Bay area, take a short walk around Dunedin to visit Meps’ four pieces of public art. Check out my Google map of the four locations.
