One Million
Bones is a large-scale social arts practice, which means combining education,
hands-on art making, and public installations to raise awareness of ongoing
genocides and mass atrocities in places like Sudan, South Sudan, the Democratic
Republic of the Congo, Somalia and Burma.
The project
goal is collecting 1,000,000 handcrafted bones for a three-day installation
event, June 8-10, 2013, on the National Mall in Washington, D.C
The
installation will exist as a collaborative site of conscience to honor victims
and survivors, and will also serve as a visual petition against ongoing
conflicts and a resounding call for much needed and long overdue action.
The
National Mall installation will feature international speakers and performers,
educational workshops, a candlelight vigil, and the opportunity to Act Against Atrocities
during an advocacy day on Capitol Hill led by our partners at the Enough
Project.
