At the beginning of the year we were asked to contribute to the "Them And Us" project, a cross cultural visual exercise curated by Noel Pretorius, design studio Disturbance and Adrian Shaughnessy.
"Them-And-Us is an initiative aimed at bringing together 20 European and 20 African visual artists, designers, illustrators and photographers. The project aimed to explore the similarities and differences between first and third world views and aesthetics by pairing up artists from Europe with their African counterparts.
Through a series of 20 double sided posters, artists were invited to explore the notion of 'Them-And-Us' and the broader theme of tolerance (or intolerance)."
The project culminated in a publication (pictured) and has so far been exhibited in Sweden and South Africa. All proceeds from sales go to Amnesty International to help in the global fight against intolerance
We chose the theme of Life & Death, working with the aptly named Love & Hate [http://du.st/wds] from Cape Town, South Africa. We'll be putting the artwork up in the next update. Meanwhile see here for more information and output: http://du.st/6wt
