Participatory Art Project: Make Combat Paper | Mission

Submitted by the Event Organizer

Combat Paper Project works with veterans and non-veteran communities to convert military uniforms and other textiles into paper, simultaneously transforming the memories attached to the garments. From September 18-29, 2012, artists from Combat Paper Project bring their studios together to create a functioning paper mill at Southern Exposure’s Mission District space.

They will produce new work, showcase recent projects, and share printing and papermaking techniques with visitors. Participants are invited to join in an open enrollment workshop to convert their own natural fiber clothing or military uniforms provided by the project into handmade paper and prints to keep.
