    Wodiczko's politically-charged works explore the relationship between art, democracy, trauma, and healing For three decades, Wodiczko has addressed timely political, social, and psychological issues in his artwork, creating over 80 large-scale public projections around the world. In these works, he transforms the stories, voices, and gestures of ordinary people in extraordinary circumstances by projecting them onto public monuments and landmarks. In a new, projection-based work for the ICA, Wodiczko will focus on the experience of veterans returning from Iraq and Afghanistan. Wodiczko's work creates an interplay between light and dark, drawing our attention to images and stories that might remain otherwise in shadows. The Veterans Project is supported in part by an award from the National Endowment for the Arts, which believes that a great nation deserves great art.
