The 'Grid Square' art installation organised by VeteransArt (see previous blog post) was donated by the contributing artists to 42 for 42
It was included in the Light & Dark 2021 fundraising exhibition held by Royal Queensland Art Society (Brisbane Branch) Inc. from 15 April - 2 May 2021.
The installation, which incorporates three prints of my Grid Square drawings, was auctioned off alongside Wendy Sharpe's artwork during the official opening.
For more info regarding the exhibition see:
42 for 42 is a non-profit organisation founded by Afghanistan combat veterans. The team at 42 for 42 are dedicated to supporting the families of fallen Afghanistan veterans, as well as those who have returned from active duty in Afghanistan, and their families.
The main goal of 42 for 42 is constructing a war memorial specifically honouring Afghanistan combat veterans. The memorial also honours returned veterans who lose their battle to suicide and mental illness at home. This memorial is being organised, supported and built by Afghanistan veterans and their families, who are all volunteers.
VeteransArt would like to thank the contributing artists for their generosity in donating their works:
