Free the Vaccine Beaded Mask

Cambridge

Objective:

I made the mask as a conversation starter to bring discussion on the accessibility of a COVID vaccine into my day-to-day activities.

The Project:

An embroidered, beaded mask that says # Free the Vaccine in black thread, outlined with beads in green, yellow, and pink. The other side has a beaded syringe in black and blue beads.

STRATEGIES:
TRY THIS:

Make one.

What worked?

I think because the mask decorations are unconventional and sparkly, it has really grabbed attention and indeed started conversations about what the mask means.

Other Notes:

I love embroidering and this seemed like an interesting way to bring embroidery to my participation with Free the Vaccine.
