It’s a slow blog time and no time to get round to image of the week largely because I’ve been up to my gills launching oneworldwallet. It’s one of a series of art projects we have planned. Fragments is coming up soon. Oneworldwallet is a social media art project and it’s a little cross-reality. It all goes under the heading of This Is Not A brand, a new art label that is promoting non-branded goods.

It begins with a series of wallets made by artist Jon Coffelt. The wallets are made from duct-tape and are absolutely beautiful and unbelievably durable. In these financially stressed times we though we’d do two things:
First we wanted to say to people put some art in your pocket. it’s not expensive and it’s better than buying brands.
And second we wanted to say be a part of the art if you wish. By joining the OWW social network your photo uploads, videos and text can become part of a larger art work Jon is engaged in creating.
That also means you get access to free art downloads which you can print at home, at the office or through a fine art printer. We starting off with a choice of five, crated from our wallet wall in Ten Cubed. It’s a great project. Hope you’ll get involved. A Euro per wallet goes to Amnesty International.
