Title (Dublin Core)

Recovery Justice Mail Art

Description (Dublin Core)

I See Dedication
I See Hope
I See Love

We are all suffering illness, sadness, loss of the way we think life should be–
Using the cool patterns on the panels of tissue boxes, I thought that material appropriate. Most of these collaged images appropriate an eye form, much like the Turkish Evil Eye, when given as a gift it offers protection.

In this project many 18th St. artists participated and a single art piece was sent out with mental health support materials for anyone who signed-up on our website.

This has been an artist-driven 18th St. Arts supported and produced project also supported by Recovery Justice, Santa Monica and We Rise LA. Special thanks to Sara Daleiden and Sue Bell Yank at 18th St.

P.S. Honestly it has been an honor and a blessing to produce work for this project and also support our friends and neighbors who are suffering more than us.
