Spare Parts is looking for artists in Brisbane!

Posted by Spare Parts - 1 March 2013 - News

Hi everyone!

I am looking for submissions from local Brisbane artists who might be willing to do some artwork on pre-loved prosthetics legs for me. I have a few sitting in the shed that I would like to put to good use.

The deal is – I want to sell them off for my favourite prosthetic charity COPE. They are based in Laos, and for USD50 they can make someone a brand new below knee prosthetic leg, and for a few dollars more, above knee legs and arms. They also provide wheelchairs, physio and more.

I want artworks that can be posted easily to buyers if need be (so no intricate breakable attachments). Artwork itself must not have anything gory or macabre on it.

I only have below the knee prosthetic legs to use. I do not have any arms this time and will not be collecting anything additional for this.

Artists MUST be in Brisbane because I do not want to pay for postage to get the legs to anyone.

I plan on selling them at about $200 each + postage/delivery. There is NO money in this for the artist, it is simply a nice fun project to raise a bit of money for some amputees who have very little.

(note, normally Spare Parts ensures artists make money from sales, but this time it is just for charity)

If you are interested, please email me a short bio and some images of your previous work by NEXT FRIDAY 8th MARCH.

Thanks everyone!!!
Priscilla

    Hello!

    Can you explain how this works? It might be something I’d be interested in doing.

    After working with many people with various disabilities at the Paralympic opening ceremony, this veritably sounds like something I’d enjoy!

    I am deaf, British, hoping to possibly set up a similar charity and link with yours? Who knows!

    Thanks!! :)
