COVID-19 Memorial
An installation memorial to lives lost to COVID-19 has been installed at the Tennessee Valley Museum of Art front entrance. Two thousand saffron orange ribbons flutter in the breeze as each one represents a life lost to the current pandemic. Presently, nearly two thousand Americans die every two days of the coronavirus or from coronavirus-related complications. As Alabama approaches more than 760 losses from the virus, the museum staff encourages community members to stop by the museum to attach a yellow ribbon in remembrance of friends and family that have passed from COVID-19.
The installation is inspired by legendary contemporary artist Cristo who passed away on May 31 at the age of 92. Cristo and his late partner Jean-Claude were famous for large scale public art installations like The Gates, which ran through Central Park in New York City. Their pieces explored concepts of space, place, and presence.
