Hi, Fediverse! Flipboard’s Art & Photography Desk here, looking forward to spreading photos and artwork that make us go “oooh.” This will include amplifying the artistic talent on this platform and beyond, as well as information, inspiration and polls. We recognize that so much of art appreciation is subjective! Never hesitate to reach out, tell us what you think, and share who or what is inspiring you.
