In 2020, Mona Hatoum contributed ‘The Blues No. 1.12.7.2020/21’ to Migrate Art’s ‘Scorched Earth’ Charity Auction. Migrate Art presented a collection of new works created in direct response to the widespread burning of crop fields in Iraqi Kurdistan.

Following the success of the ‘Scorched Earth’ auction, Migrate Art began creating limited edition prints to further support this humanitarian and ecological disaster. Atelier JI created several editions, including ‘The Blues No. 1.12.7.2020/21’ for Migrate Art and Mona Hatoum.
