Craig Walsh's Monuments

Built for the outdoors, Craig Walsh’s MONUMENTS celebrates selected individuals through large-scale, nighttime projected portraits onto live trees in public spaces for stunning effect. MONUMENTS challenges traditional expectations of public monuments and the selective history represented in our public spaces. The installations present a haunting synergy between the human form, nature, and the act of viewing. Enormous night-time projections transform trees into sculptural monuments. Strathmore’s MONUMENTS: Forces of Nature highlights the achievements and social impact of 6 individuals who work in climate, environmental stewardship, or resource justice in the DMV.
