“Familias Separadas” project, created and led by artist Michelle Angela Ortiz, is a series of temporary site-specific public art works that will mark locations and document stories of immigrant families affected by deportations in the city of Philadelphia. The main goal of the project is to shift the focus on the statistics/ numbers of deportations and see the father, mother, brother that has been torn apart from their families.
