Mending Walls Links

Mending Walls is an Emmy Award winning public art project that brings together public artists from different cultures and backgrounds to create murals that address where we are now in society and how we can move forward through understanding and collaboration. Mending Walls pairs up artists of different backgrounds to create unique connections and give them an opportunity to tell their story collaboratively in an effort to express healing through connection. In this moment we all are searching for more understanding and this project will serve as a tool that would fuel connection through story telling. Our hope is to bring about healing through public art while adding something meaningful to the conversations. The central theme of the project is “Transcending Walls.” This theme will serve as a north star as we work with artists and community members to build empathy and connection across the walls that divide us. Throughout the process, our aim is to transcend walls that are physical, social, personal, and systemic.

I have been honored to be the lead photographer through out all three years of the Mending Walls Project! You can see my work below. I also had the honor to create a coffee table book with the most amazing team of Sara Marsden & Hamilton Glass with our awesome publisher, Ward Teft of KnowHow Books (formerly Chop Suey).
