Colette Miller created the Global Angel Wings Project in 2012, in the streets of Los Angeles, the City of Angels. They were painted to remind humanity that we are the angels of this earth.
They are human sized interactive public art, wings that people take photos with and thus become part of the work. The first pair was just street art but the response was natural, immediate, and spontaneous – from people of all sorts and backgrounds.
Colette has painted wings globally – Kenya, Australia, Taiwan, France, Cuba, Juarez Mexico, and more, and many in the USA. Though some are commissioned and others gifted, the wings themselves are free to the world, never owned by anyone, not even Colette, though they are of her provenance and her work.
