During summer 2020 Oxy Arts forged a partnership with In Plain Sight—a coalition of 80 artists and activists dedicated to ending inhumane immigration policies in America.
In Plain Sight launched during Independence Day weekend with a masterfully orchestrated four-day stretch of sky typing over 80 detention centers across the nation. The project extends beyond this weekend into the summer and fall 2020 with ongoing actions and forthcoming arts-related education and engagement programming.
