People who have painted one flag over another do not make it public. News portal lrytas.lt their names are Saul, Dmitry, Amber and Count.
The campaign, in which young people replaced the flag of support for the LGBT community with a tricolor, sparked a stormy debate on social media.
The rainbow-colored flag in the underground passage was created by art critic Karolina Rimkutė and graphic designer Linas Salačka. Vilnius residents used 12 liters of paint for her. They drew the rainbow flag in 8 hours on the day of Lithuania’s restoration of independence, March 11.
The flag’s creators explained their desire for dialogue between the LGBT community and antisocial commentators, as well as some politicians.
By the way, the rainbow-colored pedestrian crossing in Vilnius did not bother anyone, only its painting was erased after winter. The same fate ran the drawing by the artist Mindaugas Tendziagolskis on the White Bridge.
The creators of the rainbow flag are not saddened by what happened. Meanwhile, those who support the young people who painted the tricolor explained that no one would dare to nail it because it would be a desecration of the state flag.
Meanwhile, for the leader of the Lithuanian Gay League, Vladimir Simonko, it is very similar to an act of hatred towards the LGBT community.
