cities throughout the US, 1993-94)
This art project on family violence, spanning two years and several
sites across the country, involved wrecked cars in sculptural installations.
The cars were reconfigured by women and children who suffered violence
at the hands of loved ones. Linked to each other through common
experience, women from a domestic violence shelter in Pittsburgh,
a family violence program at Bedford Hills Prison, children from
shelters in Niagara Falls and Cleveland, teenage girls in Oakland,
and politicians on Staten Island all collaborated in making the
cars. At each site a domestic violence prevention group presented
community outreach programs and advised on issues.
