A Refugee Camp Beautification Proposal that Seeks to Uplift both Environment and Spirits Cion, I. (2006)
A Refugee Camp Beautification project is proposed as a way to uplift both environment and to bring a positive identity to the refugees. A key component of the project is to maximize the sense of ownership and wellbeing. Two radical tools make this type of work possible: digital photography and large format printing onto high quality, durable, light-weight architectural fabrics. Regardless of the tool employed, the success of the project depends on effectively addressing three challenges including the lifespan of the digitally printed ink, the bottom line, and overcoming the notion that quality of life improvements are of secondary importance to what are wholeheartedly recognized as "essential basic needs".
