Each Creative Action Network poster is hand-printed and handled to make sure that only the highest quality is offered and sent out. The sturdy matte paper and premium inks create a vibrant, museum-quality image that looks great both framed and unframed. Posters are printed in Los Angeles, CA on Epson Enhanced Matte Paper heavyweight stock, with a wide color gamut and Epson UltraChrome HDR ink-jet technology. The framed poster arrives wrapped in a protective yet lightweight black frame and includes a shatter-resistant acrylite front protector that won't break during shipping. International orders may be subject to customs duties & taxes.

Artist Statement

This campaign is important to me personally because a very good friend of mine had to flee from Kuwait after Iraq invaded in 1990. He had to leave as a teenager, without his family, and travel to three different countries (including Iraq itself) in order to find safety. This piece shows parts of his incredible journey, using images from his story and the colors of India, where he finally found refuge. — Michael Czerniawski
