*collected by Getty Museum, Cleveland Art Museum, Duke University, Museum of Contemporary Photography (MoCP, Chicago), Smith College, Center for Creative Photography, Bryn Mawr College, and more.

A boxed set of photographs which focus on work made last Summer of Confederate monuments in flux across the Southern States. You may have seen one of the images on the cover of National Geographic or somewhere online recently. The image, a projection of George Floyd on the Robert E. Lee Monument in Richmond, Virginia, is part of a subset of the larger series of other monuments. The subset includes eight projections of Black Americans, killed by law enforcement, or other perpetrators, that were projected onto the Lee Monument last June. The portfolio of sixteen 16 x 20” archival pigment prints includes these images plus a selection from the wider project entitled, American Monuments.
