After the September 11th attacks on the World Trade Center, a memorial was set up. Two shafts of light projected into the night sky where the towers used to stand. A memorial to the men, women and children who died and to the resolve of a shocked and grieving nation never to forget.
The small physical scale of these drawings is meant to bring attention to the grand scale of these events, both physically and in their lasting impressions on our national psychology. There are a few defining moments in each generation’s collective memory that we all remember, the bombing of Pearl Harbor, the assassination of President Kennedy, 9/11. These drawings explore that national collective experience in small meditative vignettes.
