PAPA (Positive Artists Portfolio Archive) is a to share the artwork
of people living with HIV/AIDS.
Please share your art with us; we look forward to seeing it.
Poetry is welcomed in our messages and file section!
For years San Diego had a wonderful art therapy group for people
with HIV/AIDS. When we lost our studio space some of the work had to
be discarded. Even in that space, moisture and dirt destroyed the
work of many good friends. Some remaining art went into a friend's
basement. After a couple of years we had to empty that space too. We
gave away a lot of fine pieces but lost even more to dust and water.
The internet is a great place for storing visual art. Even as fires
swept through Southern California or hurricanes swept through the
South, I was hoping that those people had posted their irreplaceable
photos somewhere on the internet.
Got a hot link pertaining to HIV or art, please post it.
We also welcome portraits of persons with HIV/AIDS submitted with
the consent of the artist and subject.
Want to use a pseudonym or nick name, not a problem.
If you have the right to share the works of a deceased artist who
had HIV/AIDS then we welcome their submission.
Questions? Please feel free to ask.
Thanks.
