To mark the 20th anniversary of this historic event, Ogden Museum of Southern Art presents the work of six artists that directly address the storm, its devastation and the resiliency of the people impacted. Through their practice, these artists bore witness to both the physical and psychological damage wrought by the storm. They crafted complex narratives, built monuments to resiliency and offered prayers for recovery.  Through their work, they attempted to process this event, and as a result offer that same opportunity for healing to the viewer.
