Shards is a way for viewers to connect with individual perspectives about complex social issues. Individual artists and community members contribute images and video with their unique voice. These contributions are projected across an enlarged sculpture of shattered glass. Visitors can chose to explore Shards with a specialized flashlight. When the flashlight is pointed at a shard, the individual story on the shard begins to play its video. Visitors can explore these focused, personal connections to a larger social issue at their own pace.
