The Argus Project

The Argus Project is a transmedia work that directly intersects the public debate over police accountability At the center stands a suit of tactical countersurveillance armor embedded with body cameras that offers a simple question If the police wear body armor to protect themselves while in public what must The Public wear to protect themselves from the police Video projections surround the suit featuring former officers activists and family members directly impacted by police violence In turn creating a space for a real conversation on police violenceone that our country desperately needs This project is urgent and powerful and created by an incredible group of artists and activists
