This aerial photograph documents some of the painted messages that artist Emma Wilcox left on rooftops and empty lots in her Newark, NJ, neighborhood that the city took by eminent domain, a process where governments can expropriate private property for public use. “MY MEMORY GETS IN [THE] WAY,” reads one bit of text scrawled across a rooftop, while a more directly accusatory “THIEF” appears in a lot where a demolished building once stood.See this photograph on view in our newest installation “Waiting for Tear Gas.”“Eminent Domain No. 5,” 2007, by Emma Wilcox -- source link
