Al Mutanabbi St Broadsides Project


Just received notification that my donation to the Al-Mutanabbi St Broadsides project has been featured in Australia's Imprint magazine. The exhibition is currently touring the world and the prints are being auctioned to raise funds for Doctors Without Borders.

Al Mutanabbi St was the multicultural bookselling area of Baghdad, which was car bombed in 2007 killing or injuring 130 people.

You can read about the project here:
