Talk With Nick (about final outcome)

I decided that since I was struggling to plan how I would achieve my idea, it would be best to ask the advice of Nick Andrew, a family friend who is also an artist who's tried similar things.
His initial thoughts were that a double bed sheet would not only be hard to move and display but would also be less likely to be accepted by those in charge of the areas I wished to hang it. He suggested I create a digital work of art which I could get made as a banner. Personally I was not a fan of the idea as I felt it would come far to close the Graphics but then I thought, what if I paint my original idea as planned but on a sturdier surface which I could then photograph and get printed onto a banner? This would be easier to hang and have a more professional finish. Rather than making several, I could make one which I could hang in various places throughout a certain amount of time (maybe a week?).
Medium: paint, stamp
Size: unsure, A1 or bigger? Custom size
Slogan: we're here, we're queer? Love is not a choice?
Imagery: own gender symbol? Toilet gender symbols?
