Title: Noye, Survivor of Hurricane Katrina
Medium: Charcoal on acid free paper
Dimensions: 28"H x 24"W
Noye has lived in Hattiesburg, MS his entire life. Currently he lives in a two bedroom house with at least 6 of his relatives including his elderly and nearly blind mother. Noye works for the city of Hattiesburg as a garbage man. Noye does not have a car and relies on his bicycle and legs to get to and from work everyday.
During the storm, a very large tree fell on Noye's house. It is still there today, nearly six months after the storm! Noye's landlord has done nothing to remove the tree from the house and FEMA and the Corps of engineers have not provided any assistance to date. |
