For us at MONTANA-CANS, it is immeasurably important to have a close connection to our friends and partners who use our tools. This need for a close correlation has led us to support and sponsor an amazing amount of incredible events and projects, and helped us to establish collaborations with numerous artists, brands and partners. We are grateful to be in a position to be able to provide this kind of support, and thankful for the abundance of inspirations and ideas that artists and collaboration partners from all across the world share with us. We make it a point to feature these projects and collaborations on our blog and and social media channels, but because of the fast-paced hustle and bustle of the internet, we have decided it was time to create a printed collection which contains merely a small fraction of the creative work we have been involved in over the past years.

Forgotten Childhood LOOKBOOK 01/16 HERAKUT/aptART CollaboRATION Since early 2011, the Syrian conflict has been frequently covered by news stations all over the word. The civil war has pushed millions of Syrians from their homes, forcing them to flee their country. Jordan has provided shelter for many of the displaced, resulting in large refugee camps such as Zaatari. AptART - Awareness & Prevention Through Art - an organization founded by Samantha Robinson which aims to give vulnerable children an artistic experience, and promote an awareness about the issues that affect their lives - carried out an 8-week street art project in the camps in Northern Jordan. One of the artists they invited to join the project were Herakut, an artistic duo made up of colleagues Jasmin Siddiqui, aka „Hera“, and Falk Lehmann, aka „Akut“. Samantha Robinson and Herakut belong to MONTANA’s tight-knit group of trusted and valued collaboration partners. For this exceptional project, in these exceptional circumstances, MONTANA went to great lengths to support the workshops and creative workings with cans and other supplies. > Relief for Desperation 71
