Click Here Portrait-Story Project Mission Statement:
PSP contributes to the self-empowerment of people
organized to struggle for, retain or increase their self-determination, autonomy, liberty, culture and prosperity
through the generation of intellectual material for grassroots organizations to reproduce and market as a fundraiser
for causes within their communities. Those whom the Portrait-Story Project serves are responsible for publishing
and marketing the portraits and thus receive all proceeds from any sales. To solicit the service of the Portrait-Story
Project contact the artist at wanderer@riseup.net.

The meaning of the icons in the Stamp of the Post-Katrina Portraits: Hurricane Katrina forms ...the circle is the eye of the storm, the two semicircles are the arms of the storm ...and hits the Crescent City... New Orleans is the Cresecent City, the crescent is the shape of the Mississippi winding around New Orleans ... the Common Ground Collective forms in the aftermath on September 5th, 2005. Co-founded by hurricane survivors and friends coming to rescue and bring aid and solidarity to friends. The cross refers to Common Grounds free clinics. The fist is the fist of empowerment & solidarity. The hammer is for community-initiated grassroots rebuilding efforts. |
