Combat Paper, Through papermaking workshops, veterans use their uniforms worn in combat to create cathartic works of art. The uniforms are cut up, beat, and formed into sheets of paper. Veterans use the transformative process of papermaking to reclaim their uniform as art and begin to embrace their experiences as soldiers in war.
The Combat Paper Project is based out of Green Door Studio in Burlington, VT, and has traveled throughout the United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom, providing veterans' workshops, exhibitions, performances and artists talks in several venues.
