THE INSTALLATION

Silhouettes of captive figures made of corten steel installed outdoors on walls or as freestanding panels.

Over time, rust forms naturally, symbolizing ongoing harm and the urgency of release. Each installation includes a QR code linking to verified information and ways to help.

HOW TO PARTICIPATE
