Description
Colors explode in unconventional ways from the typical patriotic murals that often adorn the corners of small American towns. But not this time. In Logan, Kansas, a controversial splash of color and idea hits the streets. A giant 20-foot eagle named Solstice, engulfs the golden Kansas sky, soaring over wind-rippled stripes that form a truly unique flag backdrop. This striking scene is anchored by a famous local barn, merging north and south with towering sunflowers that call the Wild West into the realm of imagination. It’s a breathtaking sight that prompts viewers to pause, reflect and simply breathe it in.
The "Stardust" mural has received overwhelming praise from locals, far off star gazers, and visitors alike:
"Love looking at this every day! You did an amazing job!"
"Wow!! This is awesome! Well done!"
"This is mind-altering and inspiring!!!"
"Beautiful."
J. Farago from New York shares his thoughts: "I first met him at his exhibition and second New York City show on Broadway in 2014. Strange and funny to see his work so gigantic now, and where? Kansas? Are you joking? Incredible and humble."
"Nice work, this is beautiful."
"I’m sorry to say I thought the artist was a crazy person, and now we have an eyesore! I was terribly wrong. The mural is unbelievably beautiful, but he might be crazy still!” With Love~ Anonymous

"We live in Glasgow and visit family in Kansas and Colorado, but this year we come to visit this art first. And MAYBE… the festival in Colorado after!" ~ Lord Provost Jacqueline McLaren, SNP
Others eagerly anticipate it:
"Can't wait to see it. I’ve traveled all over the country and world searching for new original art and artists. I hope to meet this legendary Boogedy. I don’t think they know how special this one is!!” - J Saltz, SAC, New York Magazine
