This piece was made for Echo New York’s Echo 100 campaign. The design was created to be made into a silk scarf.
100 artists were asked to create a design, into a numbered edition of 100. 100$ from the sale of each scarf will be donated to the charity Choose Love, a charity dedicated to providing support to displaced people and refugees and providing aid during disasters. They are available via the Echo New York website here
