Atelier JI was proud to produce the Rise from the Ashes 2-colour screen printed edition in 2020 using Scorched Earth pigment for Migrate Art and Shepard Fairey as part of the Scorched Earth project to raise funds for RefuAid, Refugee Community Kitchen, and The Lotus Flower, all of whom help refugees across the world.

My Rise From the Ashes dove screen print incorporates ash from the burnt crop fields in Iraq into black ink. I love the dove as a symbol of peace, but in these prints the doves are not white, but black and red, relating more to the concept of a phoenix rising from the flames of destruction. Art can encourage compassion, lift the spirit, and heal through material benefit to a worthy cause, all of which I hope these prints can help to foster.
