REDaCT is a series of artworks that explore visual renderings of facts detailed in redacted public documents. Drawing from state and federal reporting on individuals and institutions along with redaction in its many forms, the REDaCT series is as much a meditation on information control, privacy, and truth as much as it is about what is left behind and what we choose to record, see, and know.
