After an extensive career in graphic design, Rajie Cook began to
explore the creation of assemblage. His assemblage work often
articulates the circumstances and experiences he encountered while
in the US Task Force for the Middle East and traveling on
fact-finding trips to Israel, Jordan, the West Bank, and Gaza. His
hand-made boxes express both graphically "and more powerfully than
words" his deeply felt concern for human rights. His use of
photography and found objects put his feelings and insights into
tangible form.
