Artist David Sandum sent out a “Call for participation”  via his Twitter followers asking them to donate postcard sized work for an international exhibition he organised at the Moss Public Library, Norway.

260 artists from 24 countries took part.

Each artist sent an original 7″ x 5″ postcard.

Andrew Pepper submitted a laser-cut gestural 'drawn' image in two columns (second row, left image - image from the Moss Public Library Flickr account).

Postcard was sold for 200kr ($32.00) each and raised a total of $3,500.00.

All proceeds from the sale of the works on display were used to help with purchasing children’s books for the library, which had it’s funding cut during 2011.

Money raised form the exhibition helped to purchase 221 new children's books.
