The 911 WTC Mapping Project focuses on an everyday detail of the victims’ lives. This work looks at the geography of September 11 as a lens through which to view each individual in an egalitarian manner. It is made up of drawings representing the discrete routes of each victim; by mapping their starting points on the morning of September 11, the lines follow the train tracks, subway lines, ferry routes, plane courses and roads that all converged at the World Trade Center. Tracing the paths of each individual who worked at, or flew into, the WTC site, this piece explores and witnesses the once living organism of their collective connection to the site. Support for the development of the 911 WTC Mapping Project was provided by the LEF Foundation.
