Keith Stafford Was Murdered

"Keith Stafford Was Murdered" is a public intervention artwork serving as both a memorial for the late Keith Stafford and a political statement against the city's removal of his only shelter, a bus stop, which contributed to his murder. This installation acted as a community access point, where individuals could leave donations, share stories, and write messages to Keith. The project highlighted the city's role in his displacement and subsequent death. Despite its significance, the city eventually removed the memorial, replicating the initial act of displacement and further emphasizing the issues of systemic neglect and injustice faced by the unhoused community.
