<div>Public art has the power to stop us in our tracks and remind us that creativity belongs to everyone.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Alketa Xhafa Mripa is a London-based conceptual artist whose work has been exhibited in galleries, museums, and public spaces around the world. For more than a decade, her internationally recognised participatory public art installation Thinking of You has travelled between cities and communities, sharing the voices of survivors of wartime sexual violence through powerful acts of collective remembrance, solidarity, and advocacy.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Today, Thinking of You enters a new chapter. Following installations across Europe and North America, we are raising funds to bring the project to more major cities and audiences, ensuring survivors' stories continue to be seen, heard, and remembered.

<div><strong>Vision</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thinking of You is a large-scale public art installation honouring survivors of wartime sexual violence while advocating for dignity, justice, and lasting change.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The work transforms clothing donated by survivors and supporters into striking public displays that encourage reflection, dialogue, and action. Each garment represents an individual story, serving as a reminder that behind every statistic is a human life shaped by resilience and courage.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>By presenting the installation in cities where international policy, diplomacy, human rights, and public discourse are shaped, Thinking of You creates opportunities to engage decision-makers, institutions, and the wider public in conversations about accountability, recognition, and support for survivors.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Since its inception in Prishtina, Kosovo, the project has travelled internationally, including installations in The Hague, Strasbourg, New York, and Oslo. Future presentations are planned in more cities across Europe and beyond, continuing the project's mission to amplify survivors' voices on a global stage.

<div><strong>About <em>Thinking of You</em></strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Sexual violence in conflict remains widespread, while many survivors continue to face stigma, silence, and barriers to justice. Thinking of You stands as a symbol of resilience, transforming spaces of everyday life into places of remembrance, awareness, and hope.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The project began in Kosovo, where thousands of donated dresses were displayed in the national stadium to honour survivors of the 1998-99 war. The installation became a powerful collective gesture of recognition and healing, attracting international attention and inspiring a growing global movement.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Since then, Thinking of You has evolved into an international platform that connects survivors, advocates, artists, institutions, and communities. In The Hague, with support from the Mukwege Foundation, garments donated by survivors from more than 20 countries were displayed in the International City of Peace and Justice. In Strasbourg, the installation transformed streets and public spaces across the city, coinciding with engagements at the Council of Europe. Most recently, the project was presented in New York near the United Nations Headquarters and in Oslo through a partnership with the Nobel Peace Center.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Across every location, the installation delivers the same message: survivors deserve visibility, dignity, and justice.

‘Thinking of You’ Art Installation Fund

Remmi Nicole and Mamadou Konate Simbo are vibrant leaders in our drumming community. They have been blessed with a son who is due in March. They bring energy, love, and support to everyone around them as musicians, teachers, loyal friends, and parents. Now, as they prepare to welcome a new baby into their family, they are facing an unexpected challenge that requires our help. 
<br>
<br>
 Shortly after birth, the baby will need to undergo heart surgery for a condition called dTGA. This news has meant that Remmi Nicole will need to take more time off from work than she had planned, so she can care for her newborn and focus on the baby's recovery as well as her own. The financial strain of medical bills and living expenses during this time is significant. Remmi Nicole and Mamoudou have always been the first to help others—now it’s our turn to support them. 
<br>
<br>
 Bringing a baby into this world is a beautiful addition to their family and our community. The sacrifices that come from growing a family are expected, but this serious health condition was unexpected. We ask that you support Remmi Nicole, Mamoudou, and their family at this time when they are in need. Your generosity will help ease the burden and allow them to focus on what matters most: their baby’s health and their family’s well-being. "More life, more blessings" - Sam Garrett.

Support Remmi Nicole & Mamadou's Baby’s Heart Surgery

<div>My brother Emmanuel and sister Kimberly are struggling.
</div>
<div>I got a phone call from Emmanuel on Wednesday morning that Kimberly was in surgery to have her gallbladder removed after being rushed to the hospital. Her surgery went ok and she is recovering. Doc told her 6 weeks, hopefully. The D'jobi's are still trying to recover from the recent loss of their shop (Mystical Studios), a car accident and are also scrambling to bring Emmanuel's children here from Africa by the end of the year. Kimberly is not able to work for at least 6 weeks which is during their busiest work season, Michigan Renaissance Festival. Emmanuel and Kimberly could really use any financial help right now to cover medical cost amongst everything else. Even just a few bucks goes a long way. Let's help them back on their feet so Kimberly can heal without the worry of losing their home. Please pray for this family.

Need Aid! The D'jobi's are stuck in a rut!

Sumayah and Devonne have been asked by Bonnie Brown to assist with needed fundraising following the unexpected death of her husband Michael Rutherford. This task is too heavy to take on when you have intense grieving, processing and caring for a child who is also grieving. We are fundraising for the immediate and basic financial needs that Bonnie and Alya face.  Michael was the financial support for the family and the loss of his income puts them at risk in many ways.  There are also a lot of unexpected expenses with Michaels death that have not been saved for. We are also fundraising for the more long term benefit and  ongoing support of Bonnie and Ayla as they navigate their way through these next few months. Bonnie stated in a post today 
<div><br />
</div>
<div>"C<span style="letter-spacing:0.0085px;">urrently, my main area of need is in finances. We were doing ok, but just ok. We were not in a place where a missed paycheck could be tolerated for very long. To complicate things, all the computers and finances are password protected— of which I have none. I’m trying not to worry about all of this yet, but it will be coming up very soon. The small amount of money I have access to will dry up." Bonnie posted links to Venmo and Zelle if you want to donate on those apps as that will give her immediate access to funds. Bonnie also posted, </span>

<div>"Obviously, this isn’t the only way you can help,
</div>
<div>Donating is only for those that are doing well financially and can comfortably share their wealth. <span style="letter-spacing:0.0085px;">I will  need lots of help, I’m sure, in the coming days and months."</span>
</div>
<div><span style="letter-spacing:0.0085px;"><br /></span>
