This is a card selected from A Monument for the Anxious and Hopeful, which was on view at the Rubin Museum in 2018. Created by artist Candy Chang and writer James A. Reeves, the installation asked visitors to write down the reasons why they are hopeful or anxious. Once they wrote down their hopes and anxieties on separate cards, they placed them on either the hopeful side (blue) or the anxious side (red). The Monument was constantly shifting, growing, and changing, as it continually reflected visitors’ greatest hopes and biggest anxieties.
