On Jan. 22, 2015 artist & tolerance educator Akiva K. Segan was at the Cascadia Community College's Mobius Art Gallery to present a lecture and gallery Q&A w/ a freshman Art Appreciation class taught by CCC art instructor Chris Gildow. Mr. Gildow organized the exhibit where the last footage in this video was taken, late Jan. 2015.
~
The human rights - themed exhibit of art & photos by 7 artists and photographers included 2 artworks by Segan; they include Segan's portrayal of Chico Mendes.
~
In this film, 5 videos made on different days in 2013, 2014 and 2015 show the progression of artist Akiva Kenny Segan's drawing of murdered Amazonian and Brazilian rainforest activist and indigeneous people's defender Chico Mendes.
~
The other artwork by Segan in the Cascadia College exhibit was a mosaic-drawing combo, “Multiple-amputee awaiting deportation, Lodz, Poland,” from the Under the Wings Holocaust art series.

The Chico Mendez drawing was begun June 18, 2013 and completed Nov. 2014.
The framed drawing is 23 1/4 inches H x 37.5 inches W.
Media: Ink, colored pencil, gouache (watercolor), thread, twine.

There are six sections of drawing fragments of a drawing the artist made on a mountainside in the southern Polish town of Rytro, summer 1984. They were part of an artwork titled Homage to Pawiak Prison, Warsaw, that was later disassembled in summer 2010.
~
Born in 1944, Mendes was 44 years old when he was murdered by a rancher in Brazil in 1988.

The drawing is no. 18 in the artist's Sight-seeing with Dignity human rights art series for children, youth, young adult and adult audiences.
