Un(re)solved

A man looks at the Un(re)solved AR Art installation of a large metal circular header frame on structural support poles with metal framed edge lit and engraved glass panels with graphics inside.
A hand holds a smartphone with its camera facing toward a vertical list of illuminated names and QR codes engraved on an edge-lit glass panel with a graphic print behind, part of the Un(re)solved traveling AR art installation.

Un(re)solved, an augmented reality installation exploring and commemorating the lives of over 150 victims of racially motivated murder, needed to travel to multiple cities, work indoors or outdoors without electrical access, and be assembled and disassembled repeatedly. 


Hudson Scenic Studios worked with creative director Tamara Shogaolu of Ado Ato Pictures and initiative sponsor PBS to prototype and build a "living quilt" of printed fabric panels and QR codes sandwiched in edge-lit acrylic, mounted on a quilt-motif steel support structure, with a custom battery-powered LED lighting solution so the installation could run at any time of day, without on-site power.
