The Combat Paper Project utilizes art making workshops to assist
veterans in reconciling and sharing their personal experiences as well
as broadening the traditional narrative surrounding service and the
military culture.

to create cathartic works of art. The uniforms are cut up, beaten into a
pulp 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 in the military.more
