Description

Visualization system for Wafaa Bilal’s memorial tattoo performance, mapping Iraq War casualties as red and ultraviolet dots across a borderless map of Iraq.

The software translated casualty data into the layout for Bilal’s full-back tattoo: visible red dots for US soldiers and invisible UV dots for Iraqi civilians, supporting a 24-hour performance that made the imbalance of public mourning physically legible.
