Carl Pope "Silent Wishes, Unconscious Prayers and Dreams...Fullfilled" 1996
Carl Pope interviewed family and friends of several Hartford young people who had
died early, often a result of violence. These Portland brownstone slabs are
etched with the words of the deceased as remembered by those close to them.
Pope's feelings that the young people in some way anticipated their early
deaths is reflected in the quotes on the stones. The project was installed
in 1996 and is still up at 128 Albany Avenue in the Clay Hill neighborhood.
