Rooted in Memory by Illuminus

About Rooted in Memory

UPDATE! New Dates Announced!

After an unexpected snowy winter, we are pleased to announce that Rooted in Memory, a commission created by Stories & Spaces and produced by Illuminus, is coming to the Charles River Esplanade! This series of site-specific installations among riverfront trees will utilize projection mapping and spatial audio to animate our memories and relationships with the trees, our environment, and each other. Special thanks to Community Boating Inc. for their support on this event!
