Description
This design is for a protest “currency” to be shared with people who attend or support the Occupy Wall St. and related 99% movement, actions and activities. It will be a printed paper bill/certificate.
The design competition is open to anyone. More than one entry per artist is allowed.
The design should be appealing and make use of the emerging ideas and iconography of the OWS / 99% movement. It should attempt to capture the feeling of the movement without making specific assertions or claims.
