2016 Calendar of Missing Children

Printed and bound transparencies and cardstock, 2022

Tasked with visualizing a very challenging dataset from the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children, I went in the direction of creating a calendar that both captures aspects of the dataset still in flux (2016 data) while also creating a memorializing space for those children who are still missing ten, twenty, thirty, or forty years later. With a project like this, any level of interactivity and subversion must still be respectful above all. By creating a wall-hanging calendar for a year now in the past, I seek to trouble the boundaries of memory and disposability.
