Will Work for Empty Wallets is a community outreach project dedicated to the millions of unemployed United States Citizens. Over 3,000 empty wallets were collected nationwide with the help of the Georgia Department of Labor to construct an 11'x21' American flag. Over 1200 wallets were used in the construction; each containing a unique empty wallet story about economic hardships.
A mixture of a social cause with a creative vision, this visual art exhibit is dedicated to the millions of unemployed citizens and veteran’s in the United States. Constructed out of 1284 used empty wallets from over 2,000 donated nation wide; this project aims to have a voice about the economic problems our country is facing and show the potential of art to awaken our social consciousness.
