Floodwall
Floodwall
350 Drawers, 225' Long
Moved and heartbroken by the profound loss inflicted by Katrina, New Orleans' artist Jana Napoli attempts to preserve a small part of what the levees could not. Constructed of more than 300 drawers salvaged from heaps of trash along the curbside of flooded neighborhoods, Floodwall speaks of what was lost to Katrina and what remains of New Orleans. It defies death and reasserts the spirit of the city — made up of the vibrant, diverse culture and history of New Orleans that is tied to neighborhoods, material culture, traditions, and most importantly people.
