In the tradition of sculptural commemoration, the bust is used to celebrate and commemorate prominent, powerful and significant figures. Missing Persons contends with this tradition and turns it inside out; it is a bust in the negative and not individually specific. Missing Persons is a commemoration of loss – those gone, removed, lost, displaced or misplaced – a remembrance of all numerous and nameless persons who have left a gaping chasm in their absence.
