Anna Corpron and Sean Auyeung, from one of my favourite blogs, Sub-Studio<\/a> has just launched a new project called Working Proof<\/a>, which seeks to promote art and social responsibility.<\/p>\n From their website:<\/strong> They will release a new print once a week, on Tuesdays at 1:30 pm, EST<\/span>. First one up is one done by Samantha Hahn<\/a> entitled Burden that features a woman bearing a heavy load, represented by chairs chained to her back. Chairs are really meant for resting in, yet she carries them \u2014 indicating a juxtaposition of roles, which suggests that sometimes it seems that we create our own burdens in life.<\/p>\n
\nEach print is paired with a charity of the artist’s choice, to which we are donating 15% of the sale of each print – creating what we believe to be a product with not just aesthetic, but social value. Besides showcasing emerging artists and great artwork, the intent of the Working Proof is to promote a variety of charities and to expose them to new supporters through the appreciation of art and creativity.<\/em><\/p>\n
