Prism Pride Artist Showcase 2026
This year’s design was created by Mobile-based designer and art director Audrey Mecke. Centered around softness, connection, and mutual care, “Stay With Me” uses approachable typography and hand-drawn elements to reflect the importance of showing up for one another. Of the piece, Audrey says:
“This piece speaks to emotional vulnerability and the need for connection during periods of depression or difficulty. It holds space for mutual presence—both asking for support and offering it—when things feel heavy or uncertain.”
Keith Wall
Prism Pride Artist Showcase 2025
This year’s featured piece, was created exclusively for Prism by Mobile-based artist Keith Wall. Of the piece, Keith says:
“This piece is rooted in the rhythms of the Gulf Coast, where marshes meet sunlight and wild things thrive. Through the prism, light transforms into identity, hope, and expression. Each element—azaleas, magnolias, pelican, and alligator—anchors the work in place, honoring the beauty of a diverse and supportive community. It’s a place I’ve called home all my life. This piece is a love letter— because color doesn’t apologize or ask to fit in. It belongs by nature.”
