Our artists created these portraits using a variety of styles, approaches, and mediums to reflect the diversity and individuality of every one of the souls depicted.
Our exhibitions blend these unique styles and personalities into a single collective artwork that forces viewers to confront what we have lost and to inspire empathy and action in the fight to end gun violence. Our participating families and friends of victims of gun violence have been extremely kind and open in allowing us to portray their loved ones in our exhibitions.
Our project began in Philadelphia, PA, in 2016 and has since spread to include all of Pennsylvania and New Jersey. Our exhibitions have featured talented, generous, artists throughout the years.
“Deeply affecting in the presence of those lost”
