Artist Statement: I believe in the POSSIBILITIES of technology to help create peaceful communities around the world. I used fabric as my artist medium, because I feel everyone has a personal connection to it.
"Be the community you want to build" is a core principal of Wael Ghonim. He is the founding administrator of the Facebook page "Kullena Khaled Said" that helped inspire 12 million Egyptians to topple its longtime ruler.
Materials & Techniques: The fabrics are linen, wool, canvas and embroidered lettering. I used "childlike" hand-stitches for the quilting, to emphasize the simplicity of the message.
Dimensions: 16"W x 25.5"H
