Papergirl 3

benny and I are huge fans of random gifting, so when we ran across Papergirl's project we fell in love with the concept!  Papergirl is a project that barrows the style of traditional paper boys, by distributing rolled paper artwork by bicycle to random people walking the streets of Berlin!  Each roll handed out contains multiple pieces of art that has been collected (people sending in whatever art they choose to share) over the last year.

It is heartwarming to see this project spread art in a way that honestly is the most gratifying way possible, as there in nothing better than random gifting to make a person feel loved!  Below are some photos of the event and be sure to check out the sweet video papergirl made, documenting all the love!
