About this project
Thanks for viewing my project. With your help, i hope to get an image layer of meaning on top of the current words layer and create some interesting juxtapositions in time for the show in August!
About 26 reminders
26 reminders is part of the “Reminders” project set up by Suthada Wadkhien that will open in Bangkok on the 30th of August 2012.

Image Layer Examples
Something like this ^. Within each poster of the series, A limited run of 20 individually hand pulled, one-color, 18”x24”, medium quality, screen prints await your image idea. View larger.
This is an “8hrs” backer b/c the image layer is screen printed. But you don’t need to go that far after all these were all made on cheap drawing/sketchbook paper, 80# cover, standard grade, non-archival paper. View larger.
I experimented with screen printing the 2nd layer. But those ideas were part of another project, specifically a demo workshop for my social design students. View It Here.
It’s not very Official. i didn’t sign or number the edition so you really can’t tell the authenticity of the print. you’ll just have to trust me that the original films have been recycled and these can’t be recreated easily (i guess you could scan in the first generation prints). View larger.
Thank you!
I hope that you are inspired and choose to support the project. Be well.
