Monuments to EscapeAn Interviewwith NETArtist-in-Residence Marisa Williamson

摘要

Imagine a sculpture of Harriet Tubman in the woods, leading her followers north along the Connecticut River. Or a Union soldier at a trailhead, frozen in contemplation of fallen leaves and the friends he returns home without. These scenes are part ofMarisa Williamson's vision for Monuments to Escape, a series of ten experimental and temporary monuments exploring the theme of "escape" that she will stage as the 2019 New England Trail Artist-in-Residence.
