No war

At the beginning of 2003, I got involved with Another Poster For Peace, a group of graphic designers who did not agree with the Iraqi war. It just didn’t make sense to us, so we created copyright free protest posters that anyone can download and use. It wasn’t popular sentiment at the time, but was the right thing to do.

When the war started, I was following a blog of a young student in Baghdad; who was photographing and watching the skies, waiting for what was going to come. I followed up until the time his blog stopped reporting, then went down. I wonder what happened to him.
