The Brodsky Center received funds from the National Endowment for the Arts to invite several New Orleans-based artists to create new work while they were still rebuilding their studios in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. This photograph is part of a series entitled Tooth for an Eye: A Choreography of Violence in Orleans Parish, which photographer Deborah Luster also published as a book. The photographs document locations of homicides, committed in the past or more recently in the city of New Orleans. As recorded by Luster, this location looks inconspicuous and does not reveal traces of the facts that compelled the artist to document it.
