PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Groundswell artist Christopher Cardinale worked with youth and adult members of F.U.R.E.E. to design a poster for their Downtown Campaign for community organizing around the real estate development of Downtown Brooklyn.
The concept was discussed over several sessions with F.U.R.E.E. members and organizers before the artist finalized the design, which depicts residents of Brooklyn rising up to preserve the integrity of their neighborhoods and fight development that leaves populations displaced.
