After the earthquakes in Haiti, everyone was compelled to respond. The art and design communities came together for the Haiti Poster Project for which proceeds will be donated to Doctors Without Borders.
And stemming from this project, brilliance from the kids. Students at the Minneapolis College of Art and Design were asked to create posters, only this time, they were given a specific set of instructions: "...if you have no power, no light, no food, no computer, but had to make something that could be reproduced 25 times, what would you make? What if you only had a pencil? Or a pen? One pair of scissors?" Check out their collective works. While the project was eventually opened up to more "tools," the results are definitely inspiring.
Makes you want to step back when you approach any project and get started with as few tools as possible, instead of jumping right in.
