Artist David Sandum sent out a \u201cCall for participation\u201d via his Twitter followers in 2010, asking them to donate postcard sized works for an international exhibition he organised at the Moss Public Library, Norway.<\/p>\n
260 artists from 24 countries took part.
Each sent an original 7\u2033 x 5\u2033 postcard.<\/p>\n

Andrew Pepper submitted a laser-cut gestural ‘drawn’ image in two columns (second row, left – image courtesy of the Moss Public Library Flickr account).<\/p>\n
Postcards were sold for 200kr ($32.00) each and raised a total of $3,500.00.<\/p>\n
All proceeds from the sale of the works on display were used to help with purchasing children\u2019s books for the library, which had it\u2019s funding cut during 2011.<\/p>\n
Money raised form the exhibition helped to purchase 221 new children’s books.<\/p>\n
